Copernicus Sentinel-1D arrives in French Guiana

Sentinel-1D has been transported from the cleanroom in Cannes, France, via Turin, Italy, all the way to French Guiana. The launch campaign is now underway to prepare the satellite for liftoff on an Ariane 6 rocket at the end of 2025. 

The fourth satellite of the Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission will continue the critical task of delivering key radar imagery of Earth’s surface for a wide range of Copernicus services and scientific applications.
