BepiColombo is Europe's first mission to Mercury. 

Launched on 20 October 2018, it is on a seven year journey to the smallest and least explored terrestrial planet in our Solar System. 

When it arrives at Mercury in late 2025, it will endure temperatures in excess of 350 °C and gather data during its one-year nominal mission, with a possible one-year extension. 

The mission comprises two spacecraft: the Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) and the Mercury Magnetospheric Orbiter (Mio). 

BepiColombo is a joint mission between ESA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), executed under ESA leadership.
