However, the satellite Envisat suddenly disappeared in April 2012. In 10 years of operation, satellites have turned 50,000 around Earth's orbit and sent more than 2,000 photos.
The pictures sent by the satellite to the center have given researchers incredible images on Earth, from the Sahara to the volcano in the Congo . from a perspective that we have never been. see before.
