A secondary objective of (Sentinel-6) is to collect high-resolution vertical profiles of temperature, using the GNSS Radio-Occultation sounding technique, to assess temperature changes in the troposphere and stratosphere and to support Numerical Weather Predictions.
The Sentinel-6B Satellite was launch on a falcon 9 block 5 rocket at (SLC-4E) from Vandenberg SFB, California, USA. The Falcon 9 Block 5 booster (1097-With 3 Flights) successfully landed back at landing zone pad-4.
