APEX on Swiss TV and at ESA

Following successful preparatory activities of APEX, the Swiss TV will cover the first flights of APEX with a news story in 'Einstein'

The coverage will be roughly a 9 min. story about activities related to integration, operation and usability of the instrument. The broadcasting takes place on September 17 at 21 hrs local time in SF 1 - Einstein
(http://tvprogramm.sf.tv/details/2680abef-85a5-41cb-b917-dd792b35eed4).

Also the European Space Agency reports on an ESA campaign that reveals a glimpse of future Sentinel-3 imagery. In the preparatory phase, APEX will be used as a simulation baseline for the future Sentinel-3 mission.
