2005年3月，欧洲航天局（ESA）发布了下一个地球探测器核心任务的提案征集，目标是在未来十年内选择发射第七次地球探测器（EE-7）任务。收到了24项建议，有待进行科学和技术评估。选定了六个候选特派团，并在初步可行性研究（第0阶段）中进行了进一步调查。其中一个任务是生物质能，它最近被选为进入a阶段。生物量是对大大改进全球生物量制图的迫切需要和目前缺乏能够满足这一需要的任何空间系统所作出的反应。
The European Space Agency (ESA) released a Call for Proposals for the next Earth Explorer Core Mission in March 2005, with the aim to select the 7th Earth Explorer (EE-7) mission for launch in the next decade. Twenty-four proposals were received and subject to scientific and technical assessment. Six candidate missions were selected and further investigated in the preliminary feasibility studies (Phase 0). One of these missions is BIOMASS, which has recently been selected to proceed to Phase-A. BIOMASS is a response to the urgent need for greatly improved mapping of global biomass and the lack of any current space systems capable of addressing this need.
