What is Sentinel-6B?
Sentinel-6B is part of a decades-long effort to accurately measure global sea-level rise from orbit—a collaboration between NASA, ESA (European Space Agency), NOAA, and EUMETSAT. The spacecraft continues a vital climate-monitoring record, using radar altimetry to track Earth’s oceans with remarkable precision.
Designing the Mission ID
(Our First Mission ID to Fly on a Rocket)
For Sentinel-6B, we were selected to create the official Mission ID—a minimal, modernist visual marker that celebrates the mission’s purpose and engineering spirit.
This was a milestone moment for us:
It was the first time our Mission ID was physically placed on a rocket and launched into space—something I’ve dreamed offor a long time.
Key Art for JPL & the Mission Team
Beyond the Mission ID, we created key art used across the mission’s internal and external communications:
Applications included:
- Posters and artwork displayed throughout JPL’s campus
- Visual assets for team presentations
- Digital graphics for mission updates and outreach
- Elements used by partner agencies in Europe and the U.S.
Honored to Contribute to the Future of Earth Science
Sentinel-6B is more than a spacecraft—it’s a continuation of humanity’s effort to understand our changing planet with clarity, accuracy, and cooperation.
We’re proud to have played a small part in a mission that will benefit science for decades to come.
