SpaceX Launches Sentinel-6B to Monitor Sea Levels
NASA stated that “The satellite will build on over 30 years of sea level data to improve weather forecasts, keep ships safe at sea, and protect coastal communities.”
Created by NASA in collaboration with US and European partners, Sentinel-6B is intended to track sea levels “down roughly an inch” over nearly 90% of the planet’s oceans.
NASA added that Sentinel-6B will operate alongside its “twin” satellite, Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, which was deployed in 2020.
