A mesmerising audiovisual experience from trip-hop collective Massive Attack that blends an original score with stunning satellite images of Earth was enjoyed by thousands of climate enthusiasts in Liverpool.
The multimedia arrangement – created through a collaboration between ESA and Massive Attack bandmember Robert “3D” Del Naja – formed part of a three-day celebration to mark Liverpool’s recently awarded status as the UN’s very first accelerator city for climate action.

The ESA-Massive Attack collaboration, which opened the exhibition days, uses imagery from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission to transport viewers over Earth’s changing environments, showcasing melting glaciers, rising sea levels, rainforests threatened by deforestation, growing desertification – and urban growth. The original score was created by Robert Del Naja & Euan Dickinson.
The journey ends with satellite images of Liverpool to highlight the importance of the city’s mission to accelerate climate action by pioneering low-carbon urban technologies. You can watch the full video on the ESA Extras YouTube channel.
The focus of Earth observation and climate action continued throughout the event, with ESA highlighting how space data is supporting efforts to address the climate crisis.
