Hyperspectral satellite imagery provides highly-resolved spectral information for large areas and can provide vital information. However, only a few imaging spectrometer missions are currently in operation. Aiming to generate synthetic satellite-based hyperspectral imagery potentially covering any region, we explored the possibility of applying statistical learning, i.e. emulation. Based on the relationship of a Sentinel-2 (S2) scene and a hyperspectral HyPlant airborne image, this work demonstrates the possibility to emulate a hyperspectral S2-like image. We tested the role of different machine learning regression algorithms (MLRA) and varied the image-extracted training dataset size. We found superior performance of Neural Network (NN) as opposed to the other algorithms when trained with large datasets (up to 100&#x0027;000 samples). The developed emulator was then applied to the L2A (bottom-of-atmosphere reflectance) S2 subset, and the obtained S2-like hyperspectral reflectance scene was evaluated. The validation of emulated against reference spectra demonstrated the potential of the technique.   $R^{2}$   values between 0.75-0.9 and NRMSE between 2-5&#x0025; across the full 402-2356 nm range were obtained. Moreover, epistemic uncertainty is obtained using the dropout technique, revealing spatial fidelity of the emulated scene. We obtained highest SD values of 0.05 (CV of 8&#x0025;) in clouds and values below 0.01 (CV of 7&#x0025;) in vegetation land covers. Finally, the emulator was applied to an entire S2 tile (5490x5490 pixels) to generate a hyperspectral reflectance datacube with the texture of S2 (60Gb, at a speed of 0.14sec/10000pixels). As the emulator can convert any S2 tile into a hyperspectral image, such scenes give perspectives how future satellite imaging spectroscopy will look like.
