Cosmonaut in space - Cosmonaut extravehicular activity - Exit of cosmonaut Oleg Kotov into space. Maintenance of the International Space Station (ISS). 14 January 2010. English cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Maxim Suraev (out of frame), both Expedition 22 flight engineers, participate in a session of extravehicular activity (EVA) as maintenance and construction continue on the International Space Station. During the spacewalk, Kotov and Suraev prepared the Mini - Research Module 2 (MRM2), known as Poisk, for future Russian vehicle dockings. Suraev and NASA astronaut Jeffrey Williams, commander, will be the first to use the new docking port when they relocate their Soyuz TMA - 16 spacecraft from the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module on Jan. 21. Earth's horizon and the blackness of space provide the backdrop for the scene. January 14, 2010

Patrick Forrester extravehicular release 06/2007 - Patrick Forrester extravehicular release. ISS - Expedition 15. 13 June 2007. Anchored to a foot restraint on the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) or Canadarm2, astronaut Patrick Forrester, STS - 117 mission specialist, participates in the mission's second planned session of extravehicular activity (EVA), as construction resumes on the International Space Station. Among other tasks, Forrester and astronaut Steven Swanson (out of frame), mission specialist, removed all of the launch locks holding the 10 - foot - wide solar alpha rotary joint in place and began the solar array retraction

Satellite Sentinel-3 - Artist view - Sentinel-3 satellite - Artist view: Artist view of the European satellite Sentinel-3 in orbit around the Earth. The first of these Earth observation satellites of the European Copernicus programme was launched on 16 February 2016. This satellite offers a land monitoring service including forest fire detection - Sentinel-3's Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer includes dedicated channels for measuring fires. This will help to map carbon emissions from burnt biomasset and to assess damage and estimate recovery of burnt areas

Earth by night - Earth by night - Earth by night satellite. Mosaic of hundreds of images obtained by DMSP (Defense Meteorological Satellite Program) satellites in 2003. This image shows Earth's human - generated nighttime lights for the calendar year 2003, based on observations by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Operational Line Scanner. In this image, oceans appear black, landmasses appear in varying shades of blue, and lights appear yellow - white. Because these images focus on human impact, they do not include other (natural) light sources. Besides assembling cloud - free images, data visualizers carefully excluded sunlight, moonlight, and light from the Northern Hemisphere aurora

Arabian desert seen by satellite 01/2016 - Eastern Desert - Egypt: Part of the Arabian desert in Egypt seen by Sentinel-2A satellite on 17 January 2016. The vegetation appears in red near the Nile. The Sentinel-2A satellite takes us over central-eastern Egypt with this image from 17 January. The image is dominated by arid desert - namely the Eastern Desert between the Nile River the Red Sea. The distinctive pattern of water erosion from rivers and streams is clearly visible as they make their way towards the Nile, at which point the rolling sandy highlands drop abruptly at the Nile valley, visible along the bottom of the image. Fields of intensive farming along the Nile appear red owing to this false-colour image being processed to include the near-infrared. The varying shades of red indicate how sensitive the multispectral instrument on Sentinel-2 is to differences in chlorophyll content, providing key information on plant health. Zooming in along the bottom we can see clusters of bla

An artist's impression of the Orion spacecraft with ESA's service module. The module sits directly below Orion's crew capsule and provides propulsion, power, thermal control, and water and air for four astronauts. The solar array spans 19 m and provides enough to power two households. A little over 5 m in diameter and 4 m high, it weighs 13.5 tons. The 8.6 tons of propellant will power one main engine and 32 smaller thrusters

The first satellites in space and a world - spanning ground segment have come together to perform the very first solely European navigation fixes, and validate the design of the Galileo system. To turn Galileo into something that everyone can use freely comes down to expanding its scale: for receivers to fix location a minimum of four satellites must be visible for anywhere on the planet, which means launching many more satellites and expanding Galileo's ground infrastructure.

The duo used another boom, the Strela - 2, to move the hand - operated crane to the Poisk module for future assembly and maintenance work. Both telescoping booms extend like fishing rods and are used to move massive components outside the station. On the exterior of the Poisk Mini - Research Module 2 (MRM2), they also installed t

Microsatellite TARANIS et Elfe - Artist view - Microsatellite TARANIS and elve - Artist view - Artist view of the french satellite TARANIS observing an elf (luminous disc in the ionosphere). TARANIS (for Tool for the Analysis of Radiation from LightNing and Sprites) will study in particular the light phenomena ephemeres (or TLE) that occur in the high atmosphere. Artist view of the CNES satellite TARANIS (for Tool for the Analysis of Radiation from Lightning and Sprites) watching an elve. This microsatellite will study the transient luminous events (TLE) which appear in the high atmosphere

Satellite ENVISAT - Artist's impression of Envisat - Artist's view of the cover of the Ariane 5 rocket opening to put the European ENVISAT satellite into orbit around the Earth. Launched on March 1, 2002, it is the largest scientific Earth observation satellite ever designed, observing the Earth in visible, infrared and radar. Artwork showing the Ariane 5 fairing ejection before Envisat separation from the upper stage. Launched in 2002, Envisat is the largest Earth Observation spacecraft ever built. It carries ten sophisticated optical and radar instruments to provide continuous observation and monitoring of the Earth's land, atmosphere, oceans and ice caps

Earth seen at night - 2012 - City Lights 2012 - Flat map - Earth observed at night by satellite. Composite image obtained by the Suomi NPP satellite in April and October 2012. NASA image acquired April 18 - October 23, 2012 This image of the Earth at night is a composite assembled from data acquired by the Suomi National Polar - orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) satellite over nine days in April 2012 and thirteen days in October 2012. It took 312 orbits and 2.5 terabytes of data to get a clear shot of every parcel of Earth's land surface and islands

ISS: The Cupola module - Cupola module on ISS - Artist view of the Cupola module installs on the Tranquility module (Node - 3) of the International Space Station (ISS). Artist's view of the Cupola mounted on the Node - 3 module of the International Space Station (ISS). This dome - shaped structure fitted with seven specially developed windows, will provide astronauts with a panoramic view for observing and guiding operations outside the ISS, as well as an unprecedented view of Earth. With a diameter of about 2 m and height of 1.5 m, the European - built Cupola provides a 'shirtsleeve' working environment for two crew members. The ergonomically designed interior is equipped with workstations from which astronauts will be able to control the station's robotic arm. The Cupola is part of ESA's contribution to the infrastructure of the International Space Station, a program conducted in partnership with the United States, Russia, Japan, Canada and Brazil
