Further great successes for Bern's planetary research

Today, the European Space Agency (ESA) has given the green light for the industrial implementation of the CHEOPS mission which is being led by the University of Bern. In addition, ESA selected today the «PLATO» M-class mission in which the University of Bern is also heavily involved. Hardly a month after the National Center of Competence in Research (NCCR) «PlanetS» has been selected by the Swiss Federal Council, these decisions confirm the leading position of Bern's space and planetary research.
