Once in orbit, Sentinel-1C will extend the Sentinel-1 mission’s legacy, delivering radar imagery to monitor Earth’s changing environment to support a diverse range of applications and scientific research. Follow the launch live from Kourou(all times CET) ...
Across-track, it receives a single measurement of the range (no image) every time a pulse is emitted. Data is acquired systematically based on a pre-set nominal mission scenario, as defined in the Sentinel High Level Operations Plan (HLOP): Operations for OLCI and the visible channels of ...
Developed as a cooperation between ESA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), this exciting mission will make a range of different measurements that together will shed new light on the role that clouds and aerosols play in regulating Earth’s delicate temperature balance. With global ...

However, a small frequency range in LO band 3B could not be optimised, because of a concern about the possibility of pushing too far and losing the entire band 3B in the process. Now, at a time when Herschel is approaching end of helium (which will force an end to all further ...
Results showed that it was possible to induce atmospheric reentry to occur within 200 years for a broad range of RAAN values, and in some cases within 25 years, without requiring extra propellant. Results also showed that Tundra disposal orbits have low collision probabilities, even for lifetimes...
Discussion covered a wide range of topics, in- cluding the need to bridge the technology gap and the importance of integrating IP into nation- al development policy. LDCs – aRDi (Access to Research for Development and Innovation). aRDi will provide LDCs with free access to a series of ...

an increase of 0.87 points. This is a highly positive performance given that all but one country in the region was already in the upper half of the distribution in 2010. The Europe region also has a relatively narrow range between its maximum and minimum IDI values, reflecting relative ICT ...
A simple simulation has been built to estimate what can be expected from these INTEGRAL observations in the Cas A and Vela Junior directions. The two main instruments of INTEGRAL, IBIS and SPI, can both provide images and spectra over the same spectral range but each of them is specialised....
