Governments around the world, as well as private industry, invest heavily in remote sensing spacecraft to obtain data about natural and environmental resources, climate change, and the relationship of earth science to human health and quality of life.
The two Nigerian satellites will both go into the Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC), the UK-managed network of remote sensing spacecraft that provide rapid imaging in times of crisis.
The Mars rovers, with the help of remote-sensing spacecraft, have sniffed out water and found the remains of one or more ancient environments where life could have survived.
Dr. Ronald G. Blom, a geologist and specialist in spacecraft remote sensing at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., said: "It's a major find.
New results on methods and software for nonlinear dynamic research and design of the precise gyromoment fault tolereant control systems by the information spacecraft (remote sensing, communication, navigation and geodetic) developed by the leading Russian State Space Research and Production Associations (RPAs) — the TsSKB-Progress and the NPO PM, are presented.

The team in the MOC knew that one possibility, very remote, was that the spacecraft had hit something.
" Hayes uses spacecraft-based remote sensing to study the surface, interior, and if present, atmosphere of planetary bodies.
The Moon was the first new world on which humans set foot; the information brought back from those expeditions, together with that collected by automated spacecraft and remote-sensing observations, has led to a knowledge of the Moon that surpasses that of any other cosmic body except Earth itself.
Hayes uses spacecraft-based remote sensing to study the properties of planetary surfaces, their interactions with the interior, and if present, atmosphere.Recently, he has focused on studying the coupling of surface, subsurface, and atmospheric processes on Titan, Mars, and Comet 67/P Churyumov Gerasimenko.
