Sentinel-6/Jason-CS (Continuity of Service) includes two identical satellites with the first launched Nov. 21, 2020 (Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich), and the second (6B) scheduled for launch in later 2025. Like their predecessors, these satellites will provide ongoing measurements of global sea level rise. Like their predecessors, these satellites will provide ongoing measurements of global sea levels.
