Airbus is ESA’s prime contractor for the European Service Module, which it assembles in Bremen, Germany, from parts made in ten European countries and the United States before shipping each module to Kennedy Space Center to be joined to an Orion crew module. It has six modules under contract; the first flew on Artemis I in 2022, and the fourth was shipped to Florida in late 2025.
