To celebrate EUMETSAT’s 40th anniversary, we’re inviting you to explore imagery of our Earth from space. 🌍🚀
If you’ve ever been mesmerised by a swirling hurricane, a massive dust storm, or the sheer beauty of Earth from space, this is your chance to share that wonder! [1/7]

Not all satellites see the same thing 👀
Later this year we will be launching:
🛰️ MTG-I2
🌊 Sentinel-3C
🌐 Metop-SGB1
While each will see the Earth a little differently, together, they will help us understand it better. 🌍
More info on each mission can be found at our website: eumetsat.int
