The FLuorescence EXplorer (FLEX)

is a satellite that will provide new insights into the photosynthesis of vegetation from 2026 onwards. The German FLEX project office is an interface between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the German users of FLEX data. Our goal is to prepare the German user community for FLEX. Our client is the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (funding ID 50EE2106).
