ASAR image before loss of contact

Envisat’s Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) captured this image on 8 April 2012 at 13:09 CEST. The image was transmitted in X-band to the Santa Maria station in the Azores, Portugal, operated by Edisoft. The image, which is of nominal quality, shows Spain’s Canary Islands. It is the last Envisat data transmitted via X-band before the communication anomaly affected the Envisat satellite.
