Sentinel-3A’s preparation is finished and the satellite will soon be shipped to the Russian Cosmodrome of Plesetsk, in Northern Russia for its launch on top of a Rockot planned end of this year. Carrying a suite of state-of-the-art instruments, Sentinel-3 is set to play a key role in Copernicus, the world’s largest environmental monitoring programme operated by the European Commission. It will provide highly accurate measurements on Earth’s oceans, land, ice and atmosphere.

  1. Are there any good videos detailing the "shipping" process? This video mentions transporting the satellite to Russia for launch, and that process might be fairly interesting.

    A quantum leap is the smallest possible cange in a System -> and it is unstable and falls apart instantly.
