Earth Observation from the ISS

A full 400 km away from Earth orbits the International Space Station, the ISS. Within just 92 minutes, the football field-sized station circles our planet and has been continuously inhabited since the year 2000. It offers unique potential for research across various scientific disciplines – including Earth observation! So let’s take a quick look at some of the key sensor systems on board the ISS and how their missions contribute to the monitoring and study of our planet.
