🏆 EO Excellence Award 2026 Winner 🏆 We are delighted to announce the winner of the EO Excellence Award 2026: Isabel Caballero, scientist at the Spanish National Research Council. 🌍🛰️ Congratulations to Isabel on this outstanding achievement. 👏 Her research focuses on the use of space-based #EarthObservation data to study coastal systems. 🌊 These dynamic environments, situated at the interface between land and sea, are increasingly affected by climate change and human activities. 🌱🏙️ They are shaped by a wide range of physical and biological processes of high societal relevance, yet remain comparatively under-explored. This is an emerging field where systematic #EO monitoring can now provide important new insights. 🔍✨ Isabel has developed innovative EO-based approaches using #ESA satellite data to investigate key coastal processes, including shallow-water bathymetry, shoreline retreat and erosion driven by extreme hydro-meteorological events and sea-level rise, as well as coastal water quality. 💧📊

🎉Artemis II mission begins! Early this morning, at 00:35 CEST 2 April, NASA's SLS rocket lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center. 🚀 At the heart of the #Artemis II mission is ESA's European Service Module, which powers, propels and sustains the Orion spacecraft and its crew of four on their journey around the Moon and safely back to Earth. 👉https://lnkd.in/eW9CRQYK Credits: ESA-S.

For the first time in more than half a century, humanity is reaching beyond Earth once again – not just to return to the Moon, but to redefine what is possible together. NASA, with its partners, has acheived something extraordinary. But this time, the journey to the Moon is not being undertaken by one nation alone. The Artemis mission is a truly international endeavour, and Europe stands proud at its very core. ESA did not simply enable this mission, ESA powered it. At the heart of the Orion spacecraft, the European Service Mission (ESM) is delivering the life support, propulsion, water and thermal control required to protect the crew through the extremes of deep space and bring them safely around the Moon and back home. Built on the legacy of ESA’s Automated Transfer Vehicle and powered by engines with Space Shuttle heritage, the ESM embodies European excellence. It represents the coordinated effort of 13 ESA Member States and the United States, bringing together 20 main contractors and more than 100 European suppliers under ESA project management. That reliability had already been proven during the 2.2‑million‑kilometre journey of Artemis I in November 2022, when the European Service Module performed flawlessly, exceeding expectations and delivering more power than anticipated. When Europe commits, Europe delivers. Human spaceflight has always been about more than technology. It is a collective achievement. It is greatness. Artemis II demonstrated what international partnership at its best can deliver: a balanced and trusted cooperation, built on shared ambition and complementary strengths. As we look ahead, ESA remains a strong, reliable and essential international partner, prepared and ready to continue playing a decisive role in shaping the future of human exploration. We will remain fully engaged with NASA, grounded in decades of cooperation and a shared commitment to exploration. To Reid, Victor, Christina and Jeremy, we wish you an exciting journey, a successful mission, and a safe return. https://lnkd.in/dhk_buNV

⏱️ Under 48 hours to Artemis II A milestone moment for human exploration and for Europe’s role in returning humanity to the Moon. At the heart of Orion is the European Service Module: delivered by ESA and built by ten Member States across Europe. The Moon is not a short term endeavour. And Europe is in it for the long run. https://lnkd.in/d8fvjHA5

Europe has taken a decisive step towards more resilient satellite navigation: the first two satellites of Celeste, ESA’s in‑orbit demonstration mission, have successfully launched from New Zealand aboard Rocket Lab’s Electron. These two spacecrafts were built by GMV in Space and Thales Alenia Space and have begun their early operations phase, paving the way to test a complementary low Earth orbit (LEO) layer for Galileo. Flying closer to Earth opens new possibilities: stronger signals, new frequencies, and a testbed for innovative positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) services that can perform in challenging environments. Celeste is also a powerful example of how Europe can move faster and innovate boldly. Developed with a New Space‑inspired approach, it enables more agile deployment of satellites and capabilities and helps ensure Europe stays at the forefront of navigation innovation. This is only the beginning. With additional launches planned in 2027, Celeste will grow to 11 spacecraft, expanding experimentation across frequency bands, user environments and applications that include support for emergency response, connected devices and IoT, and even indoor navigation. My sincere congratulations to all teams across ESA, our Member States, and European industry, including the many partners working across Europe to make Celeste a reality. Europe’s navigation success story continues, and with Celeste we are preparing the ground for the next leap in resilience and capability. https://lnkd.in/dZaz77z9 #Navigation #PNT #LEO #EuropeanInnovation
