context_page_description: The SABIA-Mar, originally called SAC-E by CONAE, is a dual satellite joint Earth observation mission. The mission objective is to study the oceanic biosphere, its changes over time, and how it is affected by and reacts to human activity. It will focus on the monitoring of ocean surfaces, especially studying the ocean ecosystem, the carbon cycle, and marine habitats, as well as ocean mapping.
  This collaboration between the Argentine and the Brazilian space agencies was originally supposed to make two identical spacecraft with Argentina supplying the payload and Brazil the satellite bus. The satellites, SABIA-Mar A and SABIA-Mar B, were supposed to fly in 2017 and 2018, and operate until 2021.
  By 2016, CONAE announced that a new agreement had been reached, where Argentina would build SABIA-Mar 1, and Brazil would build SABIA-Mar 2. The Argentine satellite, SABIA-Mar 1, is supposed to fly in 2022.
