ERS-2
The European Remote Sensing (ERS) mission consisted of a pair of satellites launched in 1991 and 1995 respectively. The satellites outlived their projected lifespans and ERS-1 ended in 2000, followed just over a decade later by ERS-2 in 2011. The primary instrument on these satellites was the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), which was utilised for multiple applications. The ERS showcase features a range of images acquired by ERS-1 and 2, along with a series of images from ERS-2 from 2001 to 2005 over many different locations around the world to demonstrate what this mission achieved.
