Background information on the transmission:

The launch of GOCE is scheduled for 10 September on top of a Eurockot launcher from Plesetsk, Russia. This is ESA's first Earth Explorer mission with a very sophisticated spacecraft designed to understand gravity and how it affects the earth's climate systems. The GOCE satellite will collect data that will be used to create an accurate geoid, a map of the reference shape of the planet. GOCE will also survey ocean circulation as never before. Improving our knowledge of gravity will help us understand climate changes. The VNR explains these challenges and contains interviews in English and German, animations of the mission, footage of the satellite and environmental images.
