Conceptual illustration of CRISTAL (Copernicus Polar Ice and Snow Topography Altimeter) satellites. This satellite, planned to launch in 2027, will carry a dual-frequency radar altimeter and microwave radiometer. This will allow CRISTAL to measure sea-ice thickness, overlying snow depth and ice-sheet elevations. | |
