      <Description>Swarm is ESA's first constellation mission for Earth Observation (EO).
      The mission consists of three identical satellites named Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie (A, B and C); which were launched on 22 November 2013 into a near-polar orbit.

      Swarm is dedicated to creating a highly detailed survey of Earth's geomagnetic field and its temporal evolution as well as the electric field in the atmosphere, by using a satellite constellation that carries sophisticated magnetometers and other instruments.</Description>
