	Cnes - Parasol prepares to enter the dance
		Operating in formation with 5 other satellites, Parasol will be one component of an orbital observatory designed to probe the atmosphere from every angle, heralding exciting times ahead for climate researchers.
		The Parasol payload draws extensively on the heritage of the POLDER instrument.
		Parasol will study the impact of aerosols and how they interact with clouds to give scientists a better understanding of Earth’s climate system.

	Cnes - PARASOL
		Mené par le CNES, le projet Parasol s’inscrit dans la filière de micro-satellite Myriade.
		Les données recueillies par Parasol seront recoupées avec celles des missions Aqua, Aura, Calipso, OCO et Cloudsat.
		En s’appuyant fortement sur les développements du radiomètre Polder, Parasol mesurera les caractéristiques directionnelles et la polarisation de la lumière réfléchie par les surfaces terrestres et l’atmosphère.

		Aura is the third in a series of major Earth observing satellites to study the environment and climate change and is part of NASA's Earth Science Enterprise.
		Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) on Sept. 15, 1991, from the Space Shuttle Discovery, scientists have gained a better understanding of the energy input, chemistry and dynamics of the upper atmosphere and the coupling between the upper and lower atmosphere.

	Rocket Jones: Space Program Archives
		In 2005, the cloud-watching satellites - CloudSat and the CALYSPO - are expected to fill in the gap between the two EOS spacecraft, with the French-developed PARASOL satellite to join them in 2006.
		Built by Boeing Satellite Systems (BSS) in El Segundo, California, Anik-2F is to provide telecommunications services across North America for 15 years for the Canadian operator Telesat.
		The escape system itself was simple in concept, but depended on a complex sequence of events, so inflight testing was deemed necessary.

		HELIOS IIA will be lofted along with six small satellite auxiliary payloads: four ESSAIM demonstrator spacecraft, the PARASOL small-sat and the NANOSAT micro-satellite.
		Arianespace Flight 165 will place the Helios IIA military observation satellite into Sun-synchronous orbit for the Defense Ministries of France, Belgium and Spain.
		For this mission, which is set now for December 18, Arianespace will use an Ariane 5 Generic launcher version.

	Cnes - PR54-2004 - A first for CNES' satellite positioning teams
		Three control centres—one for Helios 2A and Helios 1A, one for Parasol and Demeter, and one for the four Essaim microsatellites—will be in action performing dedicated operations for each satellite.
		The teams’ task is to position Helios 2A with respect to Helios 1A, Parasol in the A-train, and the Essaim formation.
		Immediately after the forthcoming Ariane 5 G+ launch scheduled on 10 December, CNES will be required to position six satellites almost simultaneously in an unprecedented, ultra-precise orbital dance choreographed by operations teams.

	Aqua Project Science
		Aqua, Latin for water, is a NASA Earth Science satellite mission named for the large amount of information that the mission will be collecting about the Earth's water cycle, including evaporation from the oceans, water vapor in the atmosphere, clouds, precipitation, soil moisture, sea ice, land ice, and snow cover on the land and ice.
		Aqua was the first member launched of a group of satellites termed the Afternoon Constellation, or sometimes the A-Train.
		Once completed, the A-Train will be led by OCO, followed by Aqua, then CloudSat, CALIPSO, PARASOL, and, in the rear, Aura.
