Esa's budget should be dramatically increased since the gdp of the EU is pretty much the same as the gdp of USA but NASA's budget is triple that of esa's.
pantta567 yes but most people do not care or to say it in the words of Carl Sagan »we live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology!«
maybe ESAs UA-cam Channel can help me out: Is there a way to contact the people responsible for SWIR Images from Earth to receive a Dataset of SWIR Images from Earth-observing satellites?
Not mentioning the military uses of this system is unsettling. I don't mean it in a negative way for we need to monitor places around the world, but not to make mention of it is disturbing.
ESA's Earth Observation satellites are all built for advancing our scientific understanding of how Earth works and to improve everyday lives, not for military purposes. Sentinel-2 is the only mission that carries an optical instrument. It is designed for vegetation monitoring - the 10 m resolution is not high enough to be used for military purposes. All other satellite instruments are designed for scientific applications and do not provide the type of imagery necessary for the military.
Please make it 3cinema tickets and 0.1cinema tickets for defense
Thank you for sharing Earth Observation’s post on UA-cam !
I will introduce in my blog site 🇯🇵 JUGEM ;)
U guyz rock-it ¡¡!!¡¡ godspeed for the future of earth and space sciences!
Thanks so much for your kinds words, Lily!

NASA's budget isn't solely focused on space, however.
amazing video! what's the name of the soundtrack?

Are you guys like nasa ?
you can observer our earth disease ; then you may care it well .

That's because ESA is not a military. Militaries have their own satellites.
