The global tasks of the European Space Research and Technology Center (ESTEC) are outlined. The advantages of being able to carry out a wide series of tests all within one building complex are described. A diagram of the test center is provided. The test center will be capable of carrying out environmental tests on large satellites such as those to be launched on Ariane 4 and 5.
