Mirror of the Herschel satellite - Herschel spacecraft's mirror - Inspection of the mirror of the European Herschel satellite. The Herschel Space Observatory, scheduled to launch in 2009, will study in the infrared the formation of galaxies, stars and planetary systems. This satellite measures nearly 7 metres high by 4.3 metres wide and weighs 3.25 tonnes. Its telescope has a 3.5-meter mirror, making it the largest mirror ever made for a scientific space mission. Herschel will orbit around Lagrange 2, approximately 1.5 million kilometres from Earth. The gigantic telescope of ESA's space - based infrared observatory, Herschel, is being prepared to be assembled with its spacecraft. Herschel's telescope, which will carry the largest mirror ever flown in space, has been delivered to ESA's European Space Research and Technology Centre, ESTEC, where engineers and scientists are busy with the final steps that will prepare the infrared observatory for launch in 2009. ESA's Herschel Space Obser

Satellite Eole ADM - Aeolus - Artist view - The ADM - Aeolus satellite - Artist view - Artist view of the European satellite Eole ADM - Aeolus (Atmospheric Dynamics Mission) in orbit around the Earth. Using a laser, it will accurately study winds and clouds and increase the accuracy of meteorological forecasts. Its launch is scheduled for 2011. Artist view of the European ADM - Aeolus (Atmospheric Dynamics Mission) satellite in Earth orbit. Equipped with a laser it will provide global observations of wind profiles from space to improve the quality of weather forecasts, and to advance our understanding of atmospheric dynamics and climate processes. Launching scheduled in 2011

Satellite Orbiting Carbon Observatory - Artist's concept of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory - Artist's view of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) satellite orbiting Earth. This satellite, scheduled to launch in early 2009, will be dedicated exclusively to the study of carbon dioxide on Earth. The mission, scheduled to launch in early 2009, will be the first spacecraft dedicated to studying atmospheric carbon dioxide, the main human - produced driver of climate change. It will provide the first global picture of the human and natural sources of carbon dioxide and the places where this important greenhouse gas is stored. Such information will improve global carbon cycle models as well as forecasts of atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and of how our climate may change in the future

Satellite SMOS - Artist view - The SMOS satellite - Artist view - Artist view of the European satellite SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) in orbit around the Earth. This satellite will perform the first global mapping of soil moisture and ocean salinity. The satellite was launched and put into orbit on 2 November 2009. The Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission make global observations of soil moisture over Earth's landmasses and salinity over the oceans. Variations in soil moisture and ocean salinity are a consequence of the continuous exchange of water between the oceans, the atmosphere and the land - Earth's water cycle. SMOS was launched on November 2, 2009

Satellite COROT - Artist's view of COROT - Artist's view of COROT - Artist's view of the satellite COROT in space. Launched at the end of December 2006, this satellite studies the physical phenomena occurring inside the stars. It is also used for the detection of extrasolar planets by observing the periodic micro-eclipses that these planets cause by passing in front of their mother star. This artist's view shows the COROT satellite, consisting of a 30 - centimetre space telescope launched in late 2006. COROT uses its telescope to monitor closely the changes in a star's brightness that comes from a planet crossing in front of it. While it is looking at a star, COROT is also able to detect 'starquakes', acoustical waves generated deep inside a star that send ripples across a star's surface, altering its brightness. The exact nature of the ripples allows astronomers to calculate the star's precise mass, age and chemical composition

Herschel will orbit around Lagrange 2, approximately 1.5 million kilometres from Earth. ESA's Herschel Space Observatory (formerly called Far Infrared and Submillimetre Telescope or FIRST) will solve the mystery of how stars and galaxies were born. Objects such as other planetary systems, or processes like the birth of galaxies in the early universe, can best be studied with infrared space telescopes in space.

Lake MacKay, Australia - Lake MacKay, Australia - Lake Mackay is Australia's fourth largest lake. Located on the border between Western Australia and the Northern Territory, this dirty lake has an area of 4,737 km2. Located in the heart of the great sand desert, it is an ephemere lake that only appears in the rain. Image obtained on 15 March 2017 by the Sentinel-2B satellite. Located on the border of the states of Western Australia and Northern Territory, the salt lake only sees water after seasonal rainfall - if at all. It is classified as an ephemeral lake, meaning it exists only after precipitation. This is not the same as a seasonal lake, which sees water for longer periods. The greens and blues in this image show desert vegetation or algae, soil moisture and minerals - mainly salt. On some of the brown 'islands' and on the shore in the lower right, we can see the east-west sand ridges forming lines in the landscape. The lake lies at the edge of the Great Sandy Desert, which covers

The extremely high salinity means fish cannot live in this water body, although there are bacteria and fungi. Note the greenish rectangles just south of the Sea. This is a large complex of mineral evaporation ponds used to produce sodium chloride and other salts for the chemical industry and human and animal consumption. These ponds are separated from the northern part of the Dead Sea by what once was the Lisan Peninsula but lowering water levels have exposed the sea bed, dividing the two sections completely.
