Programs that build and fly satellites to watch the Earth's land, oceans, atmosphere and climate, such as the Global Precipitation Measurement mission of NASA and JAXA, which observes rain and snow from orbit, Japan's Global Change Observation Mission, which follows environmental change over many years, and IRIDE, an Italian Earth observation programme coordinated by the European Space Agency. A program belongs here when its cited article describes satellites whose purpose is observing the Earth.
