Sentinel-5P (Sentinel-5 Precursor) is the first mission of the European Space Agency's Copernicus Programme dedicated to monitoring air pollution. This satellite carries the Tropomi instrument (TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument), a spectrometer sensing ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), near (NIR) and short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) to monitor ozone, methane, formaldehyde, aerosol, carbon monoxide, NO2 and SO2 in the atmosphere. Photographed at Airbus Defence and Space in Stevenage, UK prior to shipping to Russia for launch. Sentinel-5P was launched on 13 October 2017.
