The First Photograph of the Whole Earth from MTG-I1

Last year, in cooperation with the European Space Agency (ESA) and the European Meteorological Satellites Operation Organization (EUMETSAT), it was sent into space. MTG-I1 The weather observing satellite shared the first high-resolution photo it took. The satellite, which displays parts of Europe and Australia, as well as Africa and the Atlantic Ocean, has unmatched level of detail It seems to facilitate the work of scientists with

The purpose of the MTG-I1 is to monitor the weather conditions instantly, as can be predicted, and make predictions. The detail capacity of the satellite helps to make the most accurate predictions for the future. Moreover, even if a satellite with this capacity is the only one for now, until 2026 6 satellites will take its place in space. In this way, instant weather changes and all natural events that they may cause can be followed closely.

Here is the photo taken by the MTG-I1

The photo you see above may be showing the Earth and the clouds above it for us ordinary people. But for scientists, these clouds even their stance very important. Simonetta Cheli, one of the senior ESA executives, who made explanations about the image obtained, emphasized that such detailed information has not been obtained with any weather observation satellite until now. According to Cheli, MTG-I1 covers the Earth and atmospheric events. as never before will provide a good understanding.

MTG-I1, each every 10 minutes It has a structure that can photograph the Earth and send them to scientists. This will be important in both the short and long term. Experts will be able to concentrate on the causes of sudden weather events and monitor global warming. Moreover, this weather observation satellite will not only provide data to Europe. established by the United Nations World Meteorological Organization will also make weather forecasts using the data of MTG-I1.
