Call For Media: Last glimpse of the Sentinel-6 satellite

The Copernicus Sentinel-6 satellite, which will measure sea-level rise and ice thickness, will be available for a last visit in the cleanroom before it is further tested and prepared for launch in late 2020 from the Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. Media representatives are invited to join us at the IAGB space test centre in Ottobrunn, near Munich, Germany, on 15 November at 09:00 CET. The partners of the Copernicus Sentinel-6 project - ESA, the European Commission, Eumetsat, NASA, NOAA, Airbus and CNES - would be delighted to see you and discuss first-hand details regarding the mission. An interesting programme has been put together specifically for the day, and experts from the team will be available for detailed questions and interviews. Copernicus is headed by the European Commission (EC) in partnership with ESA. The EC, acting on behalf of the European Union, is responsible for the overall initiative, setting requirements and managing services. Eumetsat will operate the satellite and generate and deliver the products.
