Explained in plain English

What are satellite images?

Satellite images are pictures of Earth taken from space. They help us see changes over time, like how plants in Kent, Sussex, and Surrey have suffered from the dry weather between 2025 and 2026. These images are vital for monitoring environmental changes and understanding their impact on our planet.
