Talk:Sentinel-5 Precursor

I suggest mention is made that the design and build of the SWIR spectrometer was subcontracted to SSTL-UK. 2A02:C7D:9B72:9E00:7486:2C4D:CF31:BC7D (talk) 16:33, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

afaik, the spatial resolution of TROPOMI was doubled after signal-to-noise tests and bandwidth considerations and is now 3.5x7km^2 for bands 2-4 (near UV and blue), anybody knows a source online? 129.206.29.135 (talk) 10:13, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

Title
I don't know how to change the title, but it is wrong. This is about Sentinel 5 precursor (S5P), which is in orbit. Sentinel 5 is a planned future mission. briardew (talk) 00:54, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Sentinel-5P dimensions and launch mass
1.40 m × 0.65 m × 0.75 m is actually TROPOMI size. Sentinel-5P satellite is 3.35 m high, 5.63 m across. Also launch mass, as stated on official Copernicus programme website, is 820 kg, including 82 kg fuel and TROPOMI instrument 220 kg. Not sure how can I correctly embed all this info (not an experienced wiki editor), so I drop it here. Ggugenot (talk) 18:39, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Tropomi or TROPOMI?
I did a large copy-edit, apologies in advance if the sections aren't desired. The sub-sections I added are similar to those in other Sentinel mission articles.

It seems like the instrument is spelled TROPOMI on most websites including the Copernicus site - though ESA appears to spell it Tropomi.
