EarthCARE is a inexhaustible source of beautiful imagery of some of the most spectacular phenomena nature has to offer, so I've started a Gallery page on the EarthCARE Science web site, showing for example convective motions in the trainbands of Typhoon Ragasa... www.earthcarescience.net/gallery

So this is pretty amazing - yesterday EarthCARE sampled Hurricane Humberto straight across the eye! The eye of a tropical cyclone is small so a direct hit is rare: this is the first time EarthCARE has hit one after over a year in orbit! (Showing here also VIIRS on NOAA-20 for context.)

BIG NEWS from Bjorn Frommknecht at #LPS25: the latest estimate of #EarthCARE mission lifetime based on fuel usage is at least TEN YEARS, much higher than the pre-launch design lifetime of 3-4 years! Opens the door to even more great science!

Yesterday was #EarthCARE day at #LPS25!! Telespazio UK share what we've been doing as part of the EarthCARE DISC here: telespazio.co.uk/en/earthcare... If you didn't get to see my poster, presented by Kajal Haria, EarthCARE DISC Service Manager, you're in luck as I have attached it to this post 😀

Launched today: the EarthCARE Science web site, to promote and support the widest possible international exploitation of #EarthCARE data! Includes: explainers of the scientific applications of the satellite (more to come), meet the team, tools, web stories, history and more. www.earthcarescience.net

Great new image from ESA's #EarthCARE BBR, observing a storm over Spain during the heavy rain in March! t.co/NPe1vQygI8
