    • Description

      Meteosat 7 - the last in the series of ESA's highly successful meteorological satellites - was launched in September 1997. The next generation of Meteosat is already being worked on, with the capability to handle 100 times more data than the current satellites.
      This video index looks at the last 20 years of Meteosat - from the launch of Meteosat 1 in 1977 to the first Meteosat Second Generation Satellite, MSG1, scheduled for launch in the year 2000.
