After arriving at the California launch site at the end of September, the two HydroGNSS satellites have been carefully prepared for liftoff, scheduled this month.
HydroGNSS – a twin-satellite mission – marks the European Space Agency’s first ‘Scout’ venture. By harnessing signals from navigation satellites, HydroGNSS will help scientists gain new insights into key climate variables linked to water.

The Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite has joined the Sentinel-1 mission in orbit. Launch took place on 4 November 2025 at 22:02 CET (18:02 local time) on board an Ariane 6 launcher from Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana.
The Sentinel-1 mission delivers high-resolution radar images of Earth’s surface, performing in all weathers, day-and-night. This service is used by disaster response teams, environmental agencies, maritime authorities and climate scientists, who depend on frequent updates of critical data.
Sentinel-1D will work in tandem with Sentinel-1C, flying in the same orbit but 180° apart, to optimise global coverage and data delivery. Both satellites have a C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) instrument on board, which captures high-resolution imagery of Earth’s surface. They are also equipped with Automatic Identification System (AIS) instruments to improve detection and tracking of ships. When Sentinel-1D is fully operational, it will enable more frequent AIS observations, including data on vessel identity, location and direction of passage, enabling precise tracking.
Sentinel-1D was launched on Europe’s heavy-lift rocket Ariane 6 on flight designated VA265.

The Sentinel-1D satellite is in position on the launch pad at Europe’s spaceport in French Guiana – ready for liftoff on board the Ariane 6 launcher.
The Sentinel-1D satellite is ready to launch tomorrow (Tuesday 4 November) and, when it is fully commissioned, it will work with Sentinel-1C to capture high-resolution radar images over land, ice and sea. The mission has helped to reshape our view of planet Earth in numerous ways, by contributing data to public services and scientific studies on changes in our environment and climate. But did you know some of the following facts about Sentinel-1?
