🌊 Why launch another sea-level satellite? To build resilience, we need to know how sea level is changing, and why.
Satellites such as #Copernicus Sentinel-6B, set to launch on 17 November, are helping us uncover what’s driving sea-level change.

Remembering the ongoing cultural impact of “2001: A Space Odyssey” on the birthday of Keir Dullea, who got to say one of the most famous (and enigmatic) lines in the history of the cinema: “My, god! It’s full of stars!” Still wondering what it really meant. #KeirDullea #Odyssey #BIS
