Short summary
The European Space Agency's Aeolus satellite (2018–2023) was the first mission to measure global wind profiles from space. We analysed its performance over five years to understand data quality and coverage under different conditions. By linking instrument behaviour to wind observations, we identified strengths and limitations. These results provide essential guidance for the design and operation of the operational follow-on mission Aeolus-2.
