MicroCarb: Europe’s first initiative for high-precision tracking of CO2 sources and sinks Envirotech Online ⁦@NPL⁩ ⁦@esa⁩ ⁦@Airbus⁩ ⁦@CNES⁩ envirotech-online.com/news/industria…

Fairly sure the @Andrex request is to scan the VR code, not ‘scan back and track’ - fairly sure.. #lookbackandtrack

@AndyNaylorBHAFC @OliverKay Can you imagine a head coach exit interview at Chelsea FC? “Lampard’s feedback to the club after his interim spell in 2023 was that while there was talent in the squad, there was also a glaring lack of experience, resilience and know-how”. #euphemism

The best piece you will read anywhere on Maresca leaving Chelsea. Look above the technical area for the problem. By ⁦⁦@OliverKay⁩ nytimes.com/athletic/69353…

@AllertonJj My impression was that TE Lawrence was the prototype Taliban/Al Qaida leader except he was riding a camel rather than Toyota pickup

The "Lawrence of Arabia" actor sitting down on the left- is it Bernard Bresslaw or Frankie Howerd?

@ItsKieranDrew Surely the inverse?

In an age of infinite noise, the writer with the highest word-to-wisdom ratio wins.

@PluribusPod Great acting by the kid there

meanwhile, karolina: “the others know best!” #pluribus

Christmas Eve, 1968, Apollo 8. The first photograph of Earth from the Moon, taken by one of us. Rarely seen, Anders took this extraordinary B&W shot (remastered / cropped here) before using the colour mag to take one of the most famous photographs in history (both in the book).

Recently, the MicroCarb satellite captured its first view of Earth. 🛰️ 🌍 The satellite from a UK-@CNES partnership is helping to tackle climate change from space. 🌳🌊 Read more on @NCEOscience's blog 👉 space.blog.gov.uk/2025/09/26/mil… #COP30

@aravindEO @terrawatchspace @aravindEO News for your next newsletter: the website qa4eo.org has a refit and, more importantly, updated guidance on implementing QA4eo principles to support interoperability and stability of #EO systems across disciplines qa4eo.org

I started writing the @terrawatchspace newsletter to make sense of the Earth observation sector and to create the kind of resource I wished existed. Since then, it has grown to over 17,000 readers across space agencies, startups, researchers, investors, and end-user industries like insurance, agriculture, energy, and climate. It’s been incredible to see the impact of the newsletter - I’ve even heard it’s part of onboarding at some companies. With 60% of you opening my email every week, it is clear this has become more than just a side project. Most of it was written in bursts - in airports, in flights, in trains, in between client calls - with no grand plan other than to explain what’s happening in EO. I learned a lot from doing this for free over the past 2.5 years - about writing, about consistency, and about myself. But I've also hit a wall: this needs to be sustainable in the long term. As the audience grew, I noticed a pattern - readers fell into three broad groups: 🔍 those who want a quick EO digest 📈 those who want regular market intelligence 🧠 and those who want in-depth, structured insights So, starting September 1, the newsletter will take a new shape with the Essentials, Pro, and Premium tiers, to better serve each of these audiences. Everyone gets a free preview of the first two Pro editions this month. I will continue to be the first reader of this newsletter. I write it because it helps me think, and I hope it continues to do the same for you. Thanks to everyone who’s been part of this journey so far. Onwards!
