Beagle 2

Beagle 2 on the surface of Mars

The Guarniero model is used in this illustration.

Beagle 2 Lander
Beagle 2, integrated onto the ESA Mars Express spacecraft, was launched from Baikonur on June 2nd 2003 on a Soyuz/Fregat rocket supplied by Starsem, a system which has proved itself during four test flights carried out in 2000.

When folded up, the Beagle 2 lander resembles a very large pocket watch. This is the state in which it passed the long journey to Mars, attached to one side of the Mars Express spacecraft underneath the umbrella of its heat resistant shield.

Atelier Guarniero creates high quality space models, many of which are part of the ESA space program and of the International Space Station (ISS). Each scale model is made exactly matching the real spacecraft using information provided by the European space agency. At the moment we are working on a new line of rocket models beginning with the Soyuz launcher. We are planning to create a full line of rockets to complement our collection of satellites. Make sure to check back often to see pictures of every new satellite we produce.
