Meteosat Second Generation (MSG)
Description
Artist view of a new series of geostationary Meteosat satellites being developed by ESA in co-operation with EUMETSAT. MSG (Meteosat Second Generation) will offer a wide range of information to the weather forecasters thanks mainly to a sophisticated radiometer (SEVIRI) which will provide multi-spectral imagery of the Earth’s surface and the atmosphere every quarter of an hour. MSG is planned for launch in August 2002 by an Ariane launcher.
