  • Rating12345

Join us as we celebrate 20 years of Earth observations by the ERS satellites via live web stream on 27 September. A scientific workshop on the legacy of the two European Remote Sensing missions will be held 13:00–17:30 CEST (11:00–15:30 GMT) at ESRIN, ESA’s centre for Earth observation, in Frascati, Italy.Those unable to attend the event can follow the programme that covers the ERS history, development, operations and exploitation via live web streaming through ESA’s Observing the Earth page at http://www.esa.int/esaEO/index.html Earlier this month, the veteran ERS-2 satellite was officially shut down after its orbit was lowered to reduce the risk of collision with other satellites and space debris. ERS-2 was launched in 1995, four years after ERS-1, the first European Remote Sensing satellite.
