I've mentioned in the past that among other things, we rely on the #Meteosat geostationary satellites to monitor #MtEtna. Even though the spatial resolution is low (the sub-satellite pixel has a nominal resolution of 3km), these satellites provide information at a high temporal rate: MSG (Meteosat Second Generation) provides full-disk images are available every 15 minutes, and a RSS (Rapid Scan Service) that only covers Europe, with data available every 5 minutes. The RSS satellite is also located at 9° of longitude east, so there is less distortion on the Etna (~15° longitude).
The main downside of RSS is that the service is not continuous: every 26 days, the satellite goes into “Full Earth Scan” mode for two days: this is needed to keep the mechanisms in good working order, and the data from these scans is NOT made available, which means that every 26 days there's a 2-day hole in the RSS data.
And obviously this happens during an ongoing #eruption. Murphy's law strikes again!

🛰️☀️ Depuis l'orbite géostationnaire, les satellites #Meteosat d'EUMETSAT observent en temps réel le « terminateur », la ligne séparant le jour de la nuit, qui a atteint son inclinaison maximale de l'année au solstice (d'été pour l'hémisphère nord)

Welcome to our real-time Earth imagery stream, featuring the stunning view over Europe, captured by #Meteosat-12 from its geostationary orbit 36,000 km above Earth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nigtvuOspmM - the imagery in this stream is the RGB GeoColour composite with lightning imagery. Updated every 10 minutes, each new image comes from Meteosat Third Generation's (MTG) cutting-edge weather monitoring mission, with a slight delay due to processing. The same for Africa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3jRSL3y8Vc. And the announcement: https://www.eumetsat.int/new-satellites-eye-views-europe-and-africa-streaming-online

🛰️ Voici MTG-I2, le 3e satellite #Meteosat Troisième Génération présenté cette semaine chez Thales Alenia Space (📷).
En complément de Meteosat-12 et de MTG-S1, il va notamment aider les météorologues pour suivre les fortes tempêtes de leur formation à leur dissipation -

🌧️ La borrasca Therese sigue dejando huella en Canarias
Así ha evolucionado en las últimas 96 horas, según las imágenes del Meteosat: un giro constante, bandas nubosas muy activas y un impacto que aún no ha terminado.
Se espera que sus efectos continúen hasta mañana martes, aunque no se descarta que se prolonguen hasta el miércoles.🌐 Más información en: Tutiempo.net

Neue #Podcast-Episode: Auf Distanz 0118: Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) und Sentinel-4
Schon seit 1977 sind Satelliten mit dem Namen #Meteosat im All. Derzeit läuft die Umstellung auf die dritte Generation. Hierfür kommen zwei verschiedene Satellitentypen zum Einsatz: "Imager" MTG-I und "Sounder" MTG-S. Der erste Imager ist bereits im All, der erste Sounder soll im Juli 2025 folgen.
Ich konnte bei #OHB in Bremen eine Reihe von Gesprächen führen.

Du troede måske at de satellitbilleder fra Meteosat, som man kan se på DMI's hjemmeside var pæne og detaljerede, og gav et godt overblik over lavtryk, fronter mm. Men så bare vent til du får prøvet Eumetsats service med adgang til billeddata i næsten-realtid, hvorfra det er muligt at lave egne udsnit - som det her vedhæftede med et markant lavtryk. #Eumetsat #Meteosat

Did you know that the sea surface temperature #SST measured by satellite 🛰 is changing over the day ? Satellite measure the temperature from the first millimeters, which is warming up with the sun during the day.
The geostationnary satellites allows to follow this changes. Check these animation done with #meteosat second generation (up) and third generation (down) currently both orbiting at 0°
