Nearly eight years. 9.9 billion kilometres. 2 years of cumulative thrusting.☀️🌑🛰️

Today, #BepiColombo and its Mercury Transfer Module part ways.

Thank you, MTM, for making the journey possible.

Farewell, old friend.💙

A last selfie, 3.3 million km from Mercury 📸

#BepiColombo's Mercury Transfer Module (MTM) has taken one last set of snapshots before it separates today from the science orbiters, ESA's Bepi and JAXA's Mio, which will continue their journey to Mercury.

Farewell, robot friend 👋 🥹
