The free and open data from Europe’s Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites has been used to create a global and almost cloudless map of the world, which can be accessed here. The Sentinel-2 cloudless layer combines over 80 trillion pixels collected during different weather conditions between May 2016 and April 2017.
Sentinel-2 is part of the European Copernicus programme, the result of close collaboration between the European Space Agency (ESA), the European Commission, industry, service providers and data users.
The European Space Agency (ESA) invites researchers to put forward research projects on the effects of space radiation on the crew during long term missions by using GSI’s large particle accelerator in Darmstadt, Germany. The deadline to submit the letter of intent with experiment ideas is 15 September 2017. This Announcement of Opportunity is open to researchers working for a scientific institution in Romania, an ESA Member State.
