Happy #CoralsWeek! 🪸

Coral reefs provide habitat for more than 1 million species of plants and animals and data from the #Landsat series of satellites has allowed scientists to map and monitor these ecosystems on a global scale.

@SFU What do you love to do outside of work → Outside of work I love to push myself on snowboarding runs and try out a few jumps on Grouse Mountain (even if I end up falling more than I do landing).

[SpaceAlpha @SpaceAlphaCo]

A new team spotlight! Meet Rafael, who joins us from @SFU and brings with them a passion for science, innovation, and big challenges ⭐️⭐️💪

[SpaceAlpha @SpaceAlphaCo]

@SFU What part of your role has been most exciting → I am very excited to learn more about satellite technology and explore the technical and logistical thinking required to design a system for space.

[SpaceAlpha @SpaceAlphaCo]

@SFU ... Back then, I found myself more interested in these purely scientific disciplines, but as I entered university, I found appreciation in the craftsmanship and design of the systems that made the science and innovation possible.

[SpaceAlpha @SpaceAlphaCo]

@SFU What first inspired you → I originally fell in love with various STEM-related topics as a child and was intrigued by the science taking place in space.

[Josh Fisher @jawzsh]

I am excited to share a potential game-changer in food security. We were able to predict every food security crisis w/in the record 3-6 months before occurrence & its magnitude using tipping point theory + @NASASMAP soil moisture.

Thank you! It was an honour - the team is thrilled to be part of this exciting EO evolution 🛰

[Franz J Meyer @SARevangelist]

Very interesting #NewSpace panel at #SAR Coordination Workshop today. @SpaceAlphaCo, @capellaspace, @ICEYEfi & @synspective were represented. Great discussions on synergies with traditional platforms. These guys all do a awesome work.
