epa06965310 A handout photo made available by the European Space Agency (ESA) shows ESA’s Earth Explorer Aeolus satellite lifted off on a Vega rocket off the launch pad at the spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, 22 August 2018. Aeolus carries the Atmospheric Laser Doppler Instrument (Aladin for short) which includes revolutionary laser technology to generate pulses of ultraviolet light that are beamed down into the atmosphere to profile the world’s winds. By profiling the lowermost 30 km of the atmosphere, Aeolus will give scientists global information on the speed of the wind in near-real time. This new mission will also provide insight into how the wind influences the exchange of heat and moisture between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere. As well as advancing science and improving weather forecasts, data from Aeolus will be used in air-quality models to improve forecasts of dust and other airborne particles that affect public health.
