The Third A-Train Symposium: Summary and Perspectives on a Decade of Constellation-Based Earth Observations
The third international A-Train Symposium took place April 17–20, 2017, in Pasadena, CA, and brought 285 scientists together to learn about and exchange scientific findings from data collected by a unique constellation of Earth-observing satellites called the Afternoon Constellation, or “A-Train.” Now in full operation for over a decade, the A-Train has transformed our undertstanding of, and the way we study Earth’s interacting systems. In the July-August issue of The Earth Observer we present a summary of the symposium. We first address the development of constellation flying concepts and the satellites that make up the constellation. Next, we provide a brief mention of the previous A-Train symposia and—finally—a summary of the third symposium.
