Where does each Satwatcher satellite live?

Each friend travels around Earth along a path called an orbit, each at a different height. (Not to scale — Climato lives waaay farther away!)

Optee
SARLINO
Linky
Medium Earth orbit
Navee
Geostationary orbit
Climato
🧒 The simple way to explain it: Optee, SARLINO and Linky fly close to Earth and go around it many times a day. Navee flies much higher. Climato lives far, far away and turns along with Earth, always watching the same side.

The places of the series

Pedro never goes to space: he works right here on Earth, talking to his friends by radio and on the big screen.

Adventure, science and imagination

An animated kids series about space, satellites and science

The Satwatchers is an educational animated series for children. Pedro and his satellite friends use superpowers inspired by real space technology to explore planet Earth, solve problems and learn the value of teamwork.

🚀 Educational space cartoons

Meet lovable characters and discover rockets, satellites and Earth observation through fun space adventures for kids.

🔬 Science and STEM learning

Explore how communication satellites, satellite navigation (GPS and Galileo), weather forecasting (like GOES) and Earth-monitoring satellites (like Landsat, Amazonia-1, Sentinel) work through stories inspired by real science.

🎮 Extra activities for kids

Alongside the animated series, families can enjoy educational games, interactive missions and printable activities featuring The Satwatchers characters.

It all started with a son’s question

Marcio Perassoli’s son wanted to understand his father’s job. To explain it, Marcio turned the world of satellites into adventures. An engineer with over 15 years in remote sensing and experience in satellite operations centers in Brazil and abroad, he created The Satwatchers so every child can understand how important satellites are in everyday life.

About the use of artificial intelligence: Satwatchers uses AI only to turn Marcio's ideas into images and design. It helps with the creation, but the scientific content is all his, based on more than 15 years working with satellites.

OUR PURPOSE

What is The Satwatchers project?

An animated kids series about space, satellites and science, where every satellite has a superpower. And so does every child! More than a cartoon, it’s a fun way to build the same superpowers that make a space mission succeed:

  • Critical thinking

    The satellite takes the picture, but it’s a person who analyzes it, compares it and finds out what it shows, like where a forest has shrunk or where a river has flooded. Kids learn to do the same: observe, ask questions and draw their own conclusions.

  • Teamwork

    No satellite works alone! The optical satellite sees by day, like a camera, and the radar satellite “sees” at night and through clouds. And behind them there’s always a team: the operator sends the commands, the satellite captures the images and the analyst turns them into information. Satellite, operator and analyst: people and technology on the same mission.

  • Real-world solutions

    From weather to communication, satellites help take care of our planet. And kids can too.

Preparing kids for Industry 5.0: people and technology working together for a more human-centric, sustainable and resilient world.
