As its name indicates, it will measure the surface level in lakes and waterways, river flow rates and also study ocean dynamics to a very high degree of precision. SWOT features a number of unprecedented technological innovations and is based on a major disruptive technology, namely the wide-swath KaRIn interferometer designed by JPL.

It carries on a long-standing partnership between CNES and NASA, with Thales Alenia Space as industrial partner, starting with the 1992 launch of Topex-Poseidon and continuing with the Jason family. SWOT will be the first satellite to make a controlled atmospheric reentry, in compliance with the French Law on Space Operations to deal with the problem of space debris, a law which took effect definitively in 2020.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\"\u003eDesigned to study the topography of oceans and bodies of water on land, SWOT has a two-pronged mission covering oceanography and hydrology. The satellite will monitor ocean circulation using its 2D vision and resolution improved 10-fold. It will help us analyze and better understand the effects of water circulation in coastal regions on marine life, ecosystems, water quality and energy transfer, to improve our modeling of the interactions between the atmosphere and oceans. The hydrology part of the mission will assess changes in water storage in wetlands, lakes and reservoirs, as well as river flow rates.

The payload was integrated by JPL in Pasadena, California and will be assembled on the SWOT spacecraft bus at Thales Alenia Space’s plant in Cannes in early August. Integration and testing will continue for a year in France, with French and American teams handling these tasks. Launch by a SpaceX Falcon 9 is slated for the end of 2022.

Its task is to conceive and orbit satellites, invent the space systems of the future and nurture new services to aid us in our daily lives. Founded in 1961, it is the initiator of major space projects, launch vehicles and satellites, and the partner of choice for industry, supporting exports and fuelling innovation. CNES is working in infinite fields of applications in five core areas of focus: Ariane, science, Earth observation, telecommunications and defence. CNES is a key player driving technology research, economic development and industrial policy for the nation. It also fosters scientific collaborations and has forged numerous international partnerships. France, represented by CNES, is the leading contributor to the European Space Agency (ESA), which conducts Europe’s space policy on behalf of its 22 member states.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn need of Space - www.cnes.fr\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCNES – PRESS CONTACTS\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\"\u003ePascale Bresson \u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;Press officier \u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;Tél.+33 (1) 44 76 75 39\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;pascale.bresson@cnes.fr\u003cbr\u003e\nRaphaël Sart\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;Head of Media\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;Tél.+33 (1) 44 76 74 51\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;raphael.sart@cnes.fr\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THALES ALENIA SPACE\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"text-align-justify\"\u003eDrawing on over 40 years of experience and a unique combination of skills, expertise and cultures, Thales Alenia Space delivers cost-effective solutions for telecommunications, navigation, Earth observation, environmental management, exploration, science and orbital infrastructures.
