And there it goes!

After separating from its Falcon 9 rocket, #CopernicusEU Sentinel-6B is now flying solo under the care of @operations.esa.int.

We’re waiting to receive its first signal 📡

And now I'm going to make a list of datasets and scientific sources that rely on US govt funding and which may be shut down or at least become more precarious to see if we need to make some backups....

Thank goodness for @CopernicusEU and @esa

Mission confirmed ✅

#CopernicusEU Sentinel-6B is now in orbit and ready to begin its Launch & Early Operations phase with @operations.esa.int. The satellite is ready to continue a decades-long mission to track the height of the planet’s seas – a key measure of climate change.

One satellite can change how we see Earth. But the full story comes from the @CopernicusEU mission:

🛰️ 12 satellites orbiting the Earth

📡 Hundreds of ground instruments

💾 Over 25 terabytes of data daily

Together, propelling the EU’s space ambitions to tackle global challenges.

The day that @CopernicusEU Climate change service announces that 2024 was 1.6 C on average, and LA is on fire, The Daily podcast features an advertisement by the American petroleum Institute (or similar) promoting the burning of more fossil fuels. Well done @nytimes.com
