- Description
ESA's gravity mission GOCE (Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer) is dedicated to measuring the Earth's gravity field and modelling the geoid with unprecedented accuracy and spatial resolution. Because the gravitational signal is stronger closer to the Earth, GOCE has been designed to fly in a particularly low orbit - at an altitude of just 250 km.
