ERS-1 satellite in orbit over earth
Artists impression of the European Remote-sensing Satellite (ERS-1) in orbit over the south pole. Due for launch in April 1991, ERS-1 is equipped with all-weather microwave and radar instruments which will be used primarily to study coastal, ocean and polar ice processes. The picture shows ERS-1s solar panels at right and its long Synthetic Aperture Radar antenna facing the Earth. ERS-1 will play a major role in international satellite investigations into climate change, the so-called " Mission to Planet Earth". It will map ocean waves, currents and tides; global sea- surface temperatures and winds; ocean floor topography and sea ice distribution

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable ERS-1 satellite gracefully orbiting above our beloved planet Earth. The artist's impression beautifully captures the essence of this European Remote-sensing Satellite, set to embark on its groundbreaking mission in April 1991. Equipped with cutting-edge all-weather microwave and radar instruments, ERS-1 is poised to revolutionize our understanding of coastal, oceanic, and polar ice processes. In this image, we are presented with a mesmerizing view of ERS-1's solar panels elegantly positioned on the right side. However, it is the satellite's long Synthetic Aperture Radar antenna that truly steals the spotlight as it faces towards our magnificent blue planet below. ERS-1 holds immense significance in international efforts to investigate climate change through its involvement in the ambitious "Mission to Planet Earth". This pioneering endeavor will see ERS-1 meticulously mapping ocean waves, currents, tides; global sea-surface temperatures and winds; ocean floor topography; and sea ice distribution. By delving into these crucial aspects of Earth's complex systems from space, ERS-1 promises to provide invaluable insights into our ever-changing environment. This awe-inspiring photograph serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration. It reminds us that through scientific advancements like those embodied by ERS-1, we can unravel some of nature's most profound mysteries while safeguarding our precious home for generations to come.
