This time the range focuses on the natural beauty of Earth as seen from space.<\/p>\n<p>The new Swatch X You \u2013 ESA Collection features seven new designs that use stunning images of Earth captured by Europe\u2019s Copernicus Sentinel satellites. These are a family of satellites designed and launched by ESA as part of the most ambitious Earth observation programme in the world.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<figure class=\"article__image article__image--right\"><figcaption class=\"image__caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSwatch X You lets you create a one-of-a-kind timepiece that showcases the natural beauty of our home planet, from mountain ranges and rivers to salt flats, volcanoes and glaciers. What will you choose?<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Equipped with advanced sensors and imaging technologies,\u00a0Copernicus Sentinel satellites\u00a0constantly monitor our planet. Their data helps us to track climate change and support disaster response efforts. It\u2019s also invaluable for scientific research, policymaking, agriculture, urban planning and managing Earth\u2019s natural resources.<\/p>\n<p>The natural wonders of our planet truly seem like works of art viewed from space. This new Swatch X You \u2013 ESA Collection provides a selection of vibrantly colourful Sentinel satellite images of Earth as the starting point for you to unleash your creativity. You can use them to design a watch that reflects your love of space and our home planet.<\/p>\n<p>Simonetta Cheli, Director of Earth Observation Programmes, said, \u201cThis new partnership with Swatch allows space enthusiasts to express their creativity through breathtaking satellite imagery, turning scientific data into wearable art. The beauty of Earth, as seen by the Copernicus Sentinel satellites, also reminds us of the importance of preserving our planet for future generations. We&#8217;re excited to see how this collaboration will inspire a deeper connection with Earth\u2019s natural wonders, while highlighting the vital role Earth observation plays in protecting our world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Creating a unique space-themed timepiece is easy thanks to the Swatch X You online configurator. Just choose your favourite satellite image, then zoom in, rotate, or select your favourite part of the picture to create your personalised design.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s an added extra with this new collection. Swatch X You now includes SwatchPAY! technology, which allows you to make secure contactless payments with your custom watch. And for those who\u2019d prefer a pre-designed option, there are also seven ready-to-wear watches and seven SwatchPAY! versions, each featuring a different aspect of our planet\u2019s natural beauty.<\/p>\n<p>Emmet Fletcher, Head of ESA\u2019s Branding and Partnerships Office, said, \u201cThis wonderful collaboration between Swatch and ESA recognises the natural artistry of our home planet. It&#8217;s a unique way to celebrate Earth&#8217;s natural beauty as seen from space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Swatch X You \u2013 ESA Collection\u00a0is available worldwide now, either online at swatch.com or in selected Swatch stores. The original designs from the first Swatch X You \u2013 ESA collaboration are still available, too.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><button id=\"ezsr_26314026_1_5\" class=\"btn ezsr-star-rating-enabled\" title=\"Like\">Like<\/button><\/p>\n<p id=\"ezsr_just_rated_26314026\" class=\"ezsr-just-rated hide\">Thank you for liking<\/p>\n<p id=\"ezsr_has_rated_26314026\" class=\"ezsr-has-rated hide\">You have already liked this page, you can only like it once!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/About_Us\/Branding_and_Partnerships\/Time_to_be_inspired_by_planet_Earth?rand=771654\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agency 17\/09\/2024 48 views 1 likes Swatch has again teamed up with ESA to give space fans a new opportunity to design a custom watch featuring breathtaking images of Earth&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":789110,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-789109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ESA"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=789109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789109\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/789110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=789109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=789109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=789109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
