ERS-2 power loss - This paper gives the latest ERS-2 SAR quality assessment and calibration results, including updates to ERS-2 SAR internal calibration and stability, noise equivalent radar crosssection measurements, updates to the ERS-2 nominal replica pulse correction table and image localisation results.

RADARSAT anomaly summary - On April 25, 2004 during nominal orbit maneuvers, RADARSAT-1 experienced what was termed a "super-thrust" anomaly. This anomaly pushed RADARSAT-1 out of it's nominal orbit and by April 27th, caused noticeable errors in the windowing of the data as well as in the geolocation in the imagery.
