Launched on 1 March 2002 on an Ariane-5 rocket from Europe's spaceport in French Guiana, Envisat was the largest Earth observation spacecraft ever built with 10 instruments aboard and at eight tonnes was the largest civilian Earth observation mission ever launched.

In March 2002, the European Space Agency launched Envisat, an advanced polar-orbiting Earth observation satellite which provided measurements of the atmosphere, ocean, land, and ice. The Envisat satellite had an ambitious and innovative payload that ensured the continuity of the data measurements of the ESA ERS satellites.

Envisat is the most powerful European Earth Observation satellite yet built. It has begun making the most complete set of observations of our planet that any satellite has ever carried out. Envisat monitors: It helps scientists to understand how changes to one, say climate, affect the others.

The HEDAVI (HEritage DAta Visualisation) service enables users to discover a wealth of heritage data from ESA's ERS and Envisat missions, as well as from Landsat-5 and Landsat-7. FIND OUT MORE ODESA

Envisat provided continuous observation and monitoring of the Earth's land, atmosphere, oceans and ice caps. Due to its near-Earth polar orbit (782 km mean altitude) and fast cycle time (one orbit in 100 minutes), the mission presented unique …

2024年6月7日 · EnviSat was a satellite mission monitoring Earth’s environment. EnviSat application areas included meteorology, climatology, environment, atmospheric chemistry, vegetation, hydrology, land use, and ocean and ice processes.

The Environmental Satellite (Envisat)-1 is the successor to the European Space Agency (ESA) Remote Sensing Satellites ERS-1 and ERS-2. The satellite will provide continuity with most of the ERS-1 and -2 measurements and adds significant new capabilities.

Envisat was the world's largest civilian Earth observation satellite, providing data for a wide range of applications in the fields of oceanography, atmospheric physics, land cover and climate change.

Launched on 1 March 2002 on an Ariane-5 rocket from Europe’s spaceport in French Guiana, Envisat was the largest Earth observation spacecraft ever built with 10 instruments aboard and at eight tonnes was the largest civilian Earth observation mission ever launched.

2002年3月1日 · Envisat was the largest Earth observation spacecraft ever built. The mission delivered thousands of images and a wealth of data used to study the workings of the Earth system, including insights into factors contributing to climate change.
