EUTELSAT W-series
|
The Eutelsat W-series delivers communication services over Africa, Asia and Russia. Services provided by this fleet of satellites include Internet, public telephony, business networks, satellite news gathering, television and radio programme broadcasting and distribution. The W satellites serve a wide range of business users, including telecommunication companies, radio and television broadcasters international news agencies, manufacturing industry and multimedia service providers.
LSE provided services (LEOP, handover support, S/C control) for Eutelsat W1R, W2, W3, W4, EW5, HB6.

X-SAR/SRTM
|
It is still regarded as one of the most important "Missions to Planet Earth": The American Space Shuttle Endeavour, equipped with radar sensors developed by partners in the United States, Germany and Italy, spent eleven days orbiting Earth and collecting data to create an almost complete map of our planet's surface. The new topographic data will be beneficial to infrastructural programs in many countries that lack dequate geographic surveys. The data will also be vital to environmental research, geology, glaciology, agriculture and many other fields. The new world map, to be compiled from data gathered during this mission, will be exceptional for its precision, currency and - for the first time ever - in 3D.

MSG
|
Meteosat Second Generation has been chosen as the name for the new family of Meteorological Satellites. Twenty-five years after the rollout of the first meteorological satellite in 1977, some six other Meteosats later, MSG is now a completely new series of geostationary meteorological satellites with three pieces already being produced and others that may follow within the next decade.
