Envisat is a truly advanced Earth observing
satellite with a unique combination of sensors
that will vastly improve the range and accuracy
of scientific measurements of the atmosphere,
oceans, land surface and ice. Its total range of
capabilities far exceeds those of any previous
or planned Earth observation satellite. It will
be launched in the year 2002 by an Ariane 5. The

Envisat/Polar Platform Flight Model in ESA ESTEC
