TRUTHS is a climate focused satellite mission being developed by the European Space Agency and is based on a concept from the UK’s National Physical Laboratory, led by the UK Space Agency.
It will facilitate improved understanding of changes in the Earth’s climate and the response to the worlds net zero agenda.
This will be achieved through both its own observations, and its capability to improve the Earth observation (EO) system as a whole through in-flight cross-calibration of other satellites. TRUTHS will help deliver improved confidence in EO data gathered from space and the forecasts driven by this data.
