Heute ist der Tag der Befreiung - der Befreiung von einem menschenverachtenden Regime, das unfassbares Leid über die Welt gebracht hat. Er erinnert uns daran, wohin Hass, Ausgrenzung und nationalistischer Größenwahn führen. (1/2)

ESA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency are moving from intention to implementation, translating commitment into mission‑level cooperation. This partnership builds on trust, technical excellence and a shared determination to protect our planet.

What must it be like to see the Moon up close, for the first time in over 50 years? When Artemis II will send images of the Lunar surface back to Earth, we will see the first glimpse of our future. 🧵 #Artemis #Artemis2 #Moon #ESA #NASA @esa.int @exploration.esa.int #astrophotography

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.
Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

Today, we remember all the victims murdered during the Holocaust, and we stand with those who survived. We also mark the 81st anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. This dark memory must be passed to future generations. Never again.

The Sentinel-1 mission – which provides radar vision for the Copernicus Earth observation programme – has a new addition to its family of satellites, with the arrival in orbit of Sentinel-1D, the last of the groundbreaking first generation. The launch took place at 22:02 CET (18:02 local time), on Tuesday, 4 November, on board an Ariane 6 launcher from Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana.

📷 Hurricane #Melissa captured by the #CopernicusEU Sentinel-3 satellite on 26 October using its radiometer 🧪🌍 www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed... @esaearth.esa.int @noaa.gov
This image captured by Copernicus Sentinel-3 on 26 October 2025 shows the ‘brightness temperature’ at the top of Hurricane Melissa as it moves through the Caribbean Sea towards Jamaica, where it is expected  to make landfall.

Classified as a Category 5 storm by the US-based National Hurricane Center, Hurricane Melissa is the world’s strongest storm so far this year.

The brightness temperature of the clouds at the top of the storm, high above the ocean, range from about –75°C near the eye of the storm to about –25°C at the edges. The temperature of the surrounding ocean is much warmer, reaching as high as 25°C. 

This image has been overlaid with the landmasses below and is a mosaic of two different swaths, hence the visible diagonal line that crosses the storm.
