Spain's first Earth observation satellite carries a 370-mile wide-field imager — extraordinary coverage for its resolution class. This wide-area view makes it ideal for monitoring agricultural conditions across entire countries and rapid disaster assessment. It proved European small satellite startups could build operational Earth observation systems.
