List of Galileo satellites
This is a list of past and present satellites of the Galileo navigation system. The two GIOVE prototype vehicles were retired in 2012.
Satellites
Each satellite is named after a child that won the European Commission's Galileo drawing competition. One winner was selected from each member state of the European Union.[1]

First of all, we are having to design a new dispenser to accommodate the four satellites in the best way possible, optimising the way the loads transmitted by the launcher are filtered out," explains Marie-Paule Gense, head of development programmes for the Ariane 5 ECA and ES versions at Les Mureaux.
