In August 2020, the European Space Agency (ESA) launched the first AI-powered smart satellite into space. The mission of this small, cube-shaped satellite called Phi-Sat was to take pictures of our planet from an altitude of several hundred kilometers, and then send them to Earth, where the images are analyzed with artificial intelligence technology and excluded independently without human intervention. . This way, the monitoring experts won’t need to sit for days to classify the thousands of photos taken. This can save a lot of time and effort, and help get correct and reliable results very quickly. This is very important when it comes to weather that may change in a single day several times, which will help us better predict the weather and get alerts for extreme weather conditions quickly. We will be able to alert local authorities to take immediate action to protect citizens from hurricanes or floods
