Der #Satellit #Sentinel-6b der Europäischen Raumfahrtbehörde #ESA @esa wurde am Wochenende mit einer Falcon-9-Rakete gestartet. Damit wird die Mission von Sentinel-6 fortgesetzt, die gesamte #Meeresoberfläche zentimetergenau zu vermessen. Um das zu ermöglichen, musste u. a. erstmal ein unglaublich genaues Modell des Erdschwerefelds gemacht werden. Jetzt können wir den Anstieg des Meeresspiegels weltweit verfolgen.
Das ist u. a. in Sachen #Klimawandel wichtig.
