The information provided by the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) is critically important to a wide range of users across Europe and the rest of the world.

Copernicus provides accurate, timely, and easily accessible information to users around the world, improving the operations of emergency management services, deepening our understanding of climate change, helping us better manage natural resources and conserve biodiversity, and much more.

The Copernicus satellite missions currently in orbit provide invaluable data that feed a vibrant ecosystem of Earth Observation products and services across diverse application areas.

On 23 June 2015, the first Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite was launched. It was the second Copernicus satellite sent to space, just a little over one year after the launch of Sentinel-1A.

The Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) had an exciting start to the month, celebrating its first General Assembly from June 3-5 in Antwerp, Belgium.

The European Union is paving the way towards adopting one of the world’s most ambitious air quality regulations. The revision of the Ambient Air Quality Directives is moving forward, and Member States will have to set strict monitoring and evaluation standards.

We rarely think about the health of soils, maybe because they are always under our feet, while they are actually incredibly important to our way of life. They are the bedrock of agriculture, supporting growth and availability of crops and the livelihoods of farmers around the world.

Since the 1980s, Europe has been warming twice as fast as the global average, becoming the fastest-warming continent. This is due to several factors, including the proportion of European land in the Arctic, which is the fastest-warming region on Earth.

Space endeavours require innovation, and innovation thrives on diversity. Studies show that employees who feel that their organisation supports diversity, report an increase in their ability to innovate — up to 83%.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not just a futuristic concept; it's a critical tool shaping the present, especially in the field of Earth Observation (EO).

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, but in the world of Earth Observation (EO), it can be worth so much more.

As the world struggles to cope with the impacts of climate change, accessible tools to understand our changing climate have never been more urgently needed. Launched on 20 February by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), the Copernicus Interactive Climate Atlas (C3S Atlas)

A decade after Sentinel-1A's launch on 3 April 2014, it continues to deliver large amounts of data to users each month.

The Siberian Taiga, a vast expanse of old-growth forest in the northern reaches of Asia, stands as a beacon of biodiversity and ecological resilience amidst the global deforestation crisis.

With the objective of supporting space entrepreneurship for a digitally sustainable Europe, the European Commission launched the Competitive Space Start-ups for Innovation Initiative (CASSINI) Hackathons in 2021.

The Arctic, a region rich in unique ecosystems and home to fascinating wildlife such as polar bears, walruses and narwhals, plays a pivotal role in the Earth’s climate system. The extensive snow and ice cover reflects a large portion of sunlight back into space, balancing global temperatures.

Earlier this year, the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) Global Climate Highlights 2023 Summary confirmed 2023 as the warmest year on record, with global temperatures reaching an alarming 1.48 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels.

As global warming accelerates, decisions on infrastructure, energy, mobility, water and food security or urban planning need to be informed by the potential impacts of climate change.

Data from Copernicus sneaks into many aspects of our lives.

Imagine a summer jog along the sandy beaches of the Algarve in Portugal, a boat trip around Norwegian fjords or a leisurely walk to see the pink flamingos of the Camargue in France. Diverse and full of life, Europe's coastal zones are much admired for their biodiversity and the benefits they provide to people's livelihoods.

When we think of a healthy lifestyle, we might tend to think of being free of disease, having a good workout routine, eating a balanced diet and so on. And we wouldn't be wrong; part of a healthy lifestyle is just that. But there's more to what affects our health, and therefore our lives.

The EU Space Programme has been marked by many "firsts". In the winter of 2005, we witnessed the launch of the first Galileo test satellite. Almost a decade later, Sentinel-1A, the first Copernicus satellite, was safely launched into orbit.
