Fully assembled spacecraft on February 2023 in the anechoic chamber of Thales Alenia Space in France, after completing final electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) tests. The side shown here will always face away from the Sun. The hydrazine thrusters on the SVM still have their protective red covers on, and point away from the PLM to minimise contamination in flight (see Sect. 4.6.4). The plaque with the miniaturised fingerprint galaxy created by Euclid Consortium members can be seen at the lower left of the SVM (https://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Videos/2022/07/The_Fingertip_Galaxy_Reflecting_Euclid_in_art).
