At 18:24 CEST on 1 April 2022, EnMAP, which is about the size of a small car and weighs one tonne, embarked on its journey into space from Cape Canaveral in Florida. It is the largest payload on board a Falcon 9 rocket from US space company SpaceX. EnMAP will record Earth from a distance of 650 kilometres using 242 spectral channels.
