Sentinel-4 is a European Earth observation mission under development to support the European Union Copernicus Programme.It will focus on monitoring of trace gas concentrations and aerosols in the atmosphere to support operational services covering air-quality near-real time applications, air-quality protocol monitoring, and climate protocol monitoring.
Copernicus is the Earth observation component of the European Union Space Programme, managed by the European Commission and implemented in partnership with the EU member states, the European Space Agency (ESA), the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), the Joint Research Centre (JRC ...
The Sentinel-3 mission's main objectives are to measure sea-surface topography, land- and sea-surface temperature, land- and ocean-surface colour with accuracy in support of ocean forecasting systems, and for environmental and climate monitoring. [4] [6] [5] Sentinel-3 builds directly on the heritage pioneered by ERS-2 and Envisat satellites.
Sentinel: Mars Defense is an iOS sci-fi tower defense game developed by British indie studio Origin8 Technologies and released on February 27, 2009. [1] It was followed by the sequels Sentinel 2: Earth Defense (2009), [ 2 ] Sentinel 3: Homeworld (2010), [ 3 ] and Sentinel 4: Dark Star (2014).

Sentinel-3B is a European Space Agency Earth observation satellite dedicated to oceanography which launched on 25 April 2018. [1] It was built as a part of the Copernicus Programme , and is the second (after Sentinel-3A , launched 16 February 2016) of four planned Sentinel-3 satellites.
The game was based on a "previously published story – The Ichneumon and the Dormeuse – which first appeared in Interzone magazine in the UK back in April 1996". [3] When describing the influence of art history in the "phantasmagorical, fantastic worlds" seen in games such as Sentinel, Detalion co-founder Lukasz Pisarek explained "I remember that while developing a concept, when we tried to ...
