Aeolus: More than a Mission
2024 has been an important stepping stone in advancing our understanding of weather, climate. The retirement of the Aeolus satellite earlier this year and the launch of Aeolus 2 by the ESA has helped us safeguard flight operations, improve weather forecasting and better predict extreme weather.
Furthermore, the pioneering re-entry to Earth’s atmosphere opened up a window into space ‘junk’ with it’s challenges, innovation and consideration of what a sustainable space should look like.
Carbon Capture Storage: Remote Sensing, a Key Player
The Paris Agreement at COP21 pledged to limit the rise of global temperatures to well below 2°C, reminding us of the urgency of a transition to a low-carbon economy. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is developing as a key supporting mechanism with the potential for remote sensing to advance its progress, most notably InSAR. Here we present a case study from our partners Tre Altamira on how they are supporting this transition.
