Satellieten worden gebruikt om het weer te voorspellen, veranderingen in landgebruik te bestuderen en ons te laten zien hoe steden groeien. Vanuit de ruimte kunnen we ook een hoop natuurlijke en door de mens gemaakte verschijnselen bekijken, zoals overstromingen en bosbranden, veranderingen in de ijslaag, stijgende zeeniveaus en luchtvervuiling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>ESA is nu bezig met het bouwen van een groep aardobservatiesatellieten. Elk van deze ingewikkelde satellieten is ontworpen om \u00e9\u00e9n onderwerp heel gedetailleerd te bestuderen. Samen vertellen ze ons meer over de atmosfeer, levende organismen, rivieren, oceanen en ijslagen en over wat er binnenin de aarde gebeurt. De informatie die ze ons geven vertelt ons ook meer over hoe mensen de natuurlijke omgeving be\u00efnvloeden.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-width=\"2677\" data-credit=\"ESA\" data-detail-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Images\/2009\/01\/Galapagos_Islands_in_the_Pacific_Ocean2\" data-licence=\"ESA Standard Licence\" data-licence-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/var\/esa\/storage\/images\/esa_multimedia\/images\/2009\/01\/galapagos_islands_in_the_pacific_ocean2\/17881401-2-eng-GB\/Galapagos_Islands_in_the_Pacific_Ocean.jpg\" alt=\"Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean\"><figcaption>Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>ESA bouwt ook een serie Earth Watch-missies.
