PIX4640655: Space Shuttle of the Future - Artist's View - Terrene shuttle on launch pad - Artist's view of a space shuttle of the future on his shooting pitch. An imagined space shuttle of the future is readied for launch at twilight illumed by gantry lighting. This shuttle is referred to as “” terrene”” (meaning “” of the Earth”) to differentiate it from other space shuttles that may one day operate from the surface of the Moon and other planets / Bridgeman Images
PIX4640761: Clayton Anderson Extravehicular Release 07/2007 - Clay Anderson extravehicular activity 07/2007: Clayton (Clay) Anderson Extravehicular Release. ISS - Expedition 15. 23/07/2007 23 July 2007. Anchored to the Canadarm2 foot restraint, astronaut Clay Anderson, Expedition 15 flight engineer, removes the Early Ammonia Servicer (EAS) from its place on the International Space Station during a session of extravehicular activity (EVA). Anderson later jettisoned the EAS by shoving it opposite of the station's direction of travel. The EAS was installed on the P6 truss during STS-105 in August 2001, as an ammonia reservoir if a leak had occurred. It was never used, and was no longer needed after the permanent cooling system was activated last December. The blackness of space and Earth's horizon provide the backdrop for the scene. / Bridgeman Images

PIX4644297: Satellite Sentinel - 1 - Illustration - Artist's view of the European satellite Sentinel - 1 in orbit around the Earth. This satellite has a five-metre resolution radar, is the first of a series of satellites forming the Earth monitoring network of the Copernicus programme (formerly GMES), and together they will study the changes in the Earth's environment. Sentinel-1, the first in the family of Copernicus satellites, will be used to monitor many aspects of our environment, from detecting and tracking oil spills and mapping sea ice to monitoring movement in land surfaces and mapping changes in the way land is used. It will also play a crucial role in providing timely information to help respond to natural disasters and assist humanitarian relief efforts / Bridgeman Images

This satellite has a five-metre resolution radar, is the first of a series of satellites forming the Earth monitoring network of the Copernicus programme (formerly GMES), and together they will study the changes in the Earth's environment. Sentinel - 1, the first Earth observation satellite to be built for Europe's Global Monitoring for Environment and Security 'Copernicus' programme. It is a C - band imaging radar mission to provide an all - weather day - and - night supply of imagery. The mission will benefit numerous services such as those that relate to monitoring Arctic sea - ice, routine sea - ice mapping, surveillance of the marine environment, including oil - spill monitoring and ship detection for maritime security, monitoring land - surface for motion risks, mapping for forest, water and soil management and mapping to support humanitarian aid and crisis situations / Bridgeman Images
