Falcon 9 launches Sentinel-6B satellite to monitor global sea level

A Falcon 9 launched a joint U.S.-European satellite to monitor sea levels Nov. 17, extending a record of measurements that dates back more than 3 decades.

Vandenberg SFB Launch Alert

"Vandenberg Guardians and Airmen are scheduled to support the launch of NASA’s Sentinel-6B mission aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket Sunday, November 16, from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) from Vandenberg Space Force Base.

Liftoff is targeted for 9:21 p.m. PT.

Following stage separation, the first stage will land on Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4), which will create a sonic boom local to the base.

The live webcast will begin approximately one hour before Falcon 9’s liftoff at plus.nasa.gov.

Sentinel-6B will use radar to bounce signals off of the ocean surface to deliver continuous ocean topography measurements. The mission also will collect high-resolution vertical profiles of temperature to assess temperature changes in Earth’s atmosphere and improve weather prediction models. It will take over from Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, a twin of Sentinel-6B, which Falcon 9 launched five years ago on November 21, 2020.

There is the possibility that residents of Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Ventura counties may hear one or more sonic booms during the launch, but what residents experience will depend on weather and other conditions."

Satellites Reveal The Power Of Ocean Swell

“During recent storms, satellites recorded ocean waves averaging nearly 20 metres high – the largest ever measured from space. Moreover, satellite data now reveal that ocean swells act as storm ‘messengers’ - even though a storm may never make landfall, its swell can travel vast distances and bring destructive energy to distant coastlines...
This record merges data from satellites such as #SARAL, #Jason3, #Copernicus #Sentinel 3A and 3B, Copernicus #Sentinel6 Michael Freilich, #CryoSat and #CFOSAT…”

Sea-level monitoring satellite unboxed

Following its arrival in California a few weeks ago, the time has come for spacecraft engineers to ready the next sea-level monitoring satellite, Copernicus Sentinel-6B, for launch, which is slated for November.The first step has been to carefully remove this precious new satellite from its storage container and to start a series of comprehensive checks.
