Soon a Vega will launch from Kourou carrying a payload of several satellites. These will be delivered into orbit by a new multi-payload system developed by ESA. Among these small satellites,\u00a0 E-SAIL. This microsatellite is dedicated to supporting maritime traffic and making seafaring safer. It is part of ESA\u2019s SAT-AIS programme, which aims is to increase the coverage of the Automatic Identification System for ships. This system is a short-range coastal tracking system currently used on ships that makes traffic safer but which has a limited range. With microsatellites from the SAT-AIS programme such as E-SAIL maritime shipping can be made safer across the oceans.<\/p>\n

This A&B Roll includes interviews with:<\/p>\n

Carsten Tobehn, SAT-AIS Project Manager, ESA in English and German<\/p>\n

Frederic Rouesnel Senior Policy Officer, Luxembourg Space Agency in English and French<\/p>\n
