For 12 months last year, my colleagues and I worked on a Mission Description Document for a hypothetical future nighttime lights satellite mission. We were funded by #ESA as part of the #NEOMI program.
We've just now published the document, as well as our three Task Reports that provide the justification for the numbers in the MDD. Check it out! https://doi.org/10.48440/GFZ.B103-24052
Big thanks to ESA for the opportunity and letting us publish it openly.
