Today's #Eclipse from start-to-finish, as seen from 36,000km (22,000miles) away in geostationary orbit. The NOAA Satellites weather sats are usually focused on monitoring severe storms and other hazards - but today they cam ein handy for some eclipse watching! 🛰️

All ready in beautiful #Ghent for the first of the #spacetalks! #HansLievens and myself talking about how to observe the Earth's cryosphere (the world of snow and ice) from space, featuring many of Copernicus EU current and future space missions.

This #EarthDay, remember... What happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic As more ice melts 📉 more solar energy is absorbed 📈 leading to even more warming and ice loss 🥵 Read "10 ways Earth is interconnected" 👉esa.int/Applications/O…

🎉 Celebrating 25 years of shipborne SST satellite validation measurements at the ISFRN Workshop, at the University of Southampton - National Oceanography Centre on 22-23 April 2024 for a special event filled with knowledge, collaboration... 📷Space ConneXions

.SpaceX is targeting TODAY for the launch of the #EarthCARE satellite. Liftoff at 00:20 CEST🚀 GO EarthCARE!

We have confirmation that #EarthCARE’s first deployment is complete: the satellite has spread its solar wing, and is generating power. We have a mission!

🚀 An exciting opportunity to help shape the future of Earth Observation and cryosphere monitoring! ❄️🌍 We at ESA Earth Observation are calling for experts to join the Phase D/E1 Mission Advisory Group for Copernicus EU #CRISTAL 🛰️. Apply at missionadvice.esa.int (closes 11 Sep)

1/n 🚨 This month we had three algorithmic papers out using Machine Learning techniques applied to the remote sensing of sea ice. A quick thread below.

In the land of ice and snow... ...and volcanoes 🌋🌋🌋 #Cryo2ice is here 🛰️🛰️ Get ready for a week of 🧊 ice sheets and ice shelves 🏔️ mountain glaciers 🌊 oceans ❄️ snow and sea ice 🏞️ inland waters 🔮 & a CRISTAL clear future CryoSat 🤝 ICESat-2 ESA Earth Observation🤝NASA Earth

First up, a look ahead to CRISTAL 🤩 @TaniaGDCasal takes the mic 🎙️ on behalf of Paolo Cipollini 🇪🇺🇮🇹🇬🇧 Excited for snow depth ☃️ and ice bergs 🧊 🥳 Firsts 🥇 Operational radar altimeter Ka-band SAR mode nadir viewing Ku/Ka duel band Combo altimeter/radiometer poleward of 82

And the future, you ask? What's up next for #PolarAltimetry? It's exciting! We're busy planning for the upcoming European Space Agency #CRISTAL mission, due for launch in 2027/2028. #Cryo2Ice Symposium 2024.

An event not to miss, for everyone who looks after our Planet🌍from Space🛰️ ! ESA's Living Planet Symposium 2025. Please submit your abstracts! 👇 ESA Earth Observation esa.int/Applications/O…

💫 Throughout nearly 77,000 orbits over 14+ years, #CryoSat has generated around 350 terabytes of radar altimetry data 📊 Those data are critical in our ongoing efforts to monitor the effects of climate change 🧊 Glacier mass balance, ice sheet elevation, summer and winter sea

Some very good news from #IAC2024: the Copernicus EU Programme is going ahead with the confirmations of the six Copernicus Sentinel Expansion Missions and the signature of the related industrial contracts: esa.int/Applications/O…

Exciting news! For those who wanted to attend #cryo2ice but couldn't, you can now see all the presentations on the website Just click on the link on the title of each session 👉cryo2ice-symposium.org/detailed-agenda

It's our 15th space birthday! 💫🛰️🥳 Fabulous new research shows just why CryoSat is so treasured, using its phenomenal record since 2010 to give us the big picture of how growth, melt & drift contribute to interannual changes in Arctic sea ice 👌 🎁earth.esa.int/eogateway/succ…

Really happy to see Ukraine sign this agreement with the European Commission to enable cooperation on the Copernicus EU space programme! enlargement.ec.europa.eu/news/eu-reaffi… Ukraine has a huge amount of space, science and EO expertise. A valuable partnership for all of us.

In yesterday’s #LPS25 session ‘Celebrating 15 Years of CryoSat for climate science’ we heard from a range of scientists on the importance of this special mission. It inspired us to write this blog 👇 10 things we ❤️ about ESA's CryoSat mission cpom.org.uk/10-things-we-l…

Satellite sees satellite!😯 The NOAA Satellites GOES-18 satellite saw EUMETSAT's MTG-S1 satellite as it blasted off from Florida last night. See that little bright dot in the middle of the image? That's the SpaceX rocket!

CryoSat was launched in 2010 and has been retrieving values of sea surface height anomaly, significant wave height and wind speed ever since. Here's an evaluation of a 13-year dataset of quality-controlled data! 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
