Airbus Defence and Space<\/b> will develop and manufacture the thermal infrared instrument for the TRISHNA climate monitoring satellite for the French Space Agency (CNES<\/b>), the organizations announced Monday. <\/p>\n
TRISHNA, (Thermal Infrared Imaging Satellite for High Resolution Natural Resource Assessment), will be the latest satellite in a joint Franco-Indian satellite fleet dedicated to climate monitoring and operational applications. CNES and the Indian Space Research Organisation<\/strong> (<\/strong>ISRO<\/strong>)<\/strong> are working together to develop an infrared observation system with high thermal resolution and high revisit capability including a satellite and associated ground segment.<\/p>\n TRISHNA will observe the water cycle. According to Airbus, TRISHNA will image the Earth every three days, at 50 m resolution, observing a temperature range from approximately -20 to +30\u00b0C. Airbus plans to use innovations from other programs like IASI-NG to offer affordable high performance instrument with the aim of encouraging development of a commercial market.<\/p>\n Airbus Head of Space Systems Jean-Marc Nasr said, \u201cThanks to ambitious science missions like TRISHNA, our industry has reached a technological maturity that opens up a new era of commercial observation of the Earth and all related applications. France\u2019s world-leading expertise in the Earth observation export market, combined with the unmatched efficiency and ambition of the Indian Space industry is going to bring thermal infrared imagery to a new level. This will enable breakthrough applications in agriculture, urban and coastal zone management, meteorology, climate science, and many commercial applications.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Airbus Defence and Space will develop and manufacture the thermal infrared instrument for the TRISHNA climate monitoring satellite for the French Space Agency (CNES), the organizations announced Monday.
