Brexit and Galileo – Plenty of Rumblings, but Where’s the Beef?

Currently one of the biggest challenges in making accurate weather predictions is gathering enough information about Earth’s wind. #Aeolus will be the first-ever satellite to directly measure winds from space, at all altitudes, from Earth's surface through the troposphere and up 30 km to the stratosphere — providing information that will significantly improve the quality of weather forecasts.
#esa #Aeolus #satellite 🛰 will be launched on 21 Aug.

#eo-learn makes extraction of valuable information from satellite imagery easy.
eo-learn is a collection of open source Python packages that have been developed to seamlessly access and process spatio-temporal image sequences acquired by any satellite fleet in a timely and automatic manner.

You can avoid #YouTube's weird algorithms and broken subscription system by subscribing to channels through RSS instead. You don't need an account, just a feed reader.
Put the channel's username in this address:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user=USERNAME
You can then add this RSS address to your feed reader app.
For example, OnePotChefShow's RSS feed is:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user=OnePotChefShow
You can also make RSS feeds from channel IDs (strings of letters and numbers):
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNELID
