The Living Planet VNR

Embargoed until 06/07/99 - when the Living Planet programme will be launched, in London - this VNR summarises ESA's new Living Planet programme of Earth Observation. The aim of this programme is to build upon the success of previous programmes - such as Metesoat and ERS - with two new types of mission, named Earth Explorer and Earth Watch.
The VNR contains graphics to illustrate these missions, as well as contemporary and historical footage describing ESA's involvement in the global Earth Observation market.
