ESA's new Earth observation innovation hub, ɸ-lab, is set to welcome three research fellows from the aerospace industry giant Airbus, to work at the edge of disruptive technologies that monitor Earth's environment from space.

This has been made possible through an agreement signed today by Josef Aschbacher, Head of ESA's Earth Observation Programmes, and Evert Dudok, Executive Vice President of Communications Intelligence and Security for Airbus.
