Landsat 10, planned for launch in 2031, will bring superspectral imaging, improved 10 m spatial resolution, and 26 spectral bands to Earth observation. Discover how the next-generation mission will enhance environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, water quality assessment, and long-term climate research.

Experience every single Artemis II photo all 12,217 raw images from NASA’s historic crewed lunar mission. Discover breathtaking Earth and Moon views captured by Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen during the first human flight beyond low Earth orbit in over 50 years. Direct access to the complete uncurated archive included.

Sentinel-6B, the twin of Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, was successfully launched on November 17, 2025 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Vandenberg Space Force Base. The new Copernicus climate satellite will ensure uninterrupted, centimeter-accurate monitoring of global sea-level rise - a critical climate indicator - through at least 2030 and beyond.

Europe is preparing to launch Sentinel-1D aboard Ariane 6 on November 4, 2025 — a next-generation radar satellite ensuring the continuity of Copernicus Earth observation data and advancing Europe’s autonomous access to space.

The Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission, launched on 1 July 2025, introduces Europe’s first geostationary satellite for air quality monitoring. Orbiting at 36,000 km, Sentinel-4 delivers hourly high-resolution data on atmospheric pollutants, enhancing CAMS forecasts and supporting Europe’s environmental goals.

In March 2025, South Korea faced one of the most destructive wildfire outbreaks in its history. Sentinel-2 satellite imagery using SWIR and NIR channels reveals the extent of the 170,000-hectare disaster, with regions near Andong, Uiseong, and Yeongyang severely affected.

In a stunning reversal, Maxar Technologies has restored Ukraine’s access to high-resolution satellite imagery just days after the Trump administration cut it off. With Russian forces intensifying their assault—including a deadly missile strike on Zelenskyy’s hometown—Kyiv’s regained ability to monitor troop movements and infrastructure damage could be a lifeline in a war teetering on the edge.

A dramatic fireball lit up the skies over Northern Europe as debris from a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket made an uncontrolled reentry over Poland. The incident raised concerns about space debris and was closely monitored by European space agencies.

Sentinel-2C Mission Overview Launched on September 5th, 2024, Sentinel-2C is part of the European Union's Copernicus Programme—an extensive network of Earth-observing satellites designed to monitor the environment, land use, and coastal waters. However, once a month, Sentinel-2C shifts its focus from Earth to the Moon for a "Moon calibration" procedure. This routine calibration is critical for ensuring the radiometric accuracy of the satellite's instruments.
