The Earth observation programmes of the European Space Agency (ESA): overview of current and future concepts
In recent years the Earth observation (EO) programmes of the European Space Agency (ESA) have been dramatically extended. They now include activities that cover the entire spectrum of the wide EO domain, encompassing both upstream and downstream developments, i.e. related to flight elements (e.g. sensors, satellites, supporting technologies ...

European Space Agency Astronauts
On the last day of the Artemis II mission, our European Service Module and Orion's Crew Module separated. 🥹 They both entered Earth's atmosphere, our Service Module burnt up harmlessly, and the Crew Module splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. The European Service Module provided life support for the astronauts - air, water, and a comfortable temperature - as well as electricity with its four solar arrays and propulsion through space with its 33 engines.

ESA Earth Observation on Instagram: "How do satellites scan Earth? 🛰️ As satellites orbit, they collect data in long strips beneath them, called swaths. The width of a swath varies from mission to mission: some cover wide areas while others have narrower swaths - shaping the level of detail and the kind of insights satellites can provide. 📸contains modified @copernicus_eu Sentinel data (2019), processed by @europeanspaceagency 📸contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2017), processed by E

How much do you really know about Earth? It’s one interesting planet! 🌍 From the shape of the planet to the driest place on Earth, satellites and science help us understand it all. Here are five facts you might not expect: 1. It’s not a perfect sphere 2. Coral reefs are the largest living structures on Earth 3. Its driest place? Dry enough to test Mars rovers 4. Underground, Earth isn’t completely solid 5. Antarctica holds nearly 90% of the planet’s ice Which one surprised you the most? 📹 @eur

When the Sun erupts three times in 48 hours, Earth feels it ☀️ In November 2025, our star unleashed a rapid sequence of solar outbursts that swept across space and triggered a severe geomagnetic storm here on Earth. Scientists detected radio blackouts lasting up to an hour, rare high-energy particles breaking through our magnetic shield, and stunning auroras far from the poles. Even so, the storm caused minimal disruption on the ground, and our missions - from low-Earth orbit to deep space - rec
