⭐ Kids' series · ages 4 to 7
Meet Pedro and his satellite friends. Together they watch Earth from above, solve problems and discover the world — with superpowers inspired by real satellites.
Nobody can do everything alone: when one friend can't do it, another friend's superpower helps.
Places, festivals, landscapes and people from all over the world — Brazil included — seen from above.
Every story answers a real question a child would ask.
Problems get solved only when friends combine their superpowers.
Click each friend to flip the card and see the real science behind them.
Each friend flies at a different height around Earth. (Not to scale — Climato lives waaay farther away!)
Pedro never goes to space: he works right here on Earth, talking to his friends by radio and on the big screen.
Giant screens, maps of Earth and the radio that talks to the satellites. This is where Pedro calls the crew.
The crew's home base, seen from outside.
Rocket Pop's home!

He's the goofiest of the crew and always messes up the countdown… Press the button and see what happens. Then shout along: “3, 2, 1… POP goes the rocket!”
Printables and games with the Satwatchers crew.
Cut out the 7 characters, each with their superpower, and play "Who should Pedro call?".
Problems pop up on Earth and kids call the right satellite. Pedro reads everything aloud!

Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the Moon, on the Apollo 11 mission.
is when Landsat started taking pictures of Earth. It inspired Optee!
working satellites around Earth today.
is how long the Space Station takes to go around Earth. You can see it in the sky: a bright dot that moves and doesn't blink!
km/h (17,500 mph) is how fast a satellite in low orbit has to go sideways to keep from falling. Satellites farther away, like Climato, can go slower!
