The Spacex Falcon 9 missile just launched a moon with advanced European weather and flat on a ship at sea.
the Falcon 9 It was raised from the historic Pad 39a in NASA Kennedy Space Center In Florida today (July 1) at 5:04 pm EST (2104 GMT), the satellite (MTG-S1) of MTG (MTG-S1) bears the orbit of geological transport.
The first stage of the missile returned to the ground as planned after about 8.5 minutes, successive Spacex The drone “Read the instructions”, which was concentrated in the Atlantic Ocean.

The ninth release and landing of this appointed supporter (appointed B1085) was, according to Description of Spacex’s mission. Among the previous trips to support Fra2 The mission of a private space pioneer, the journey of a crew 9 to the International Space Station of NASA and its launch in Jan the moon: Firefly Aerospace’s Blue ghost ISPace.
The upper stage of Falcon 9 MTG-S1 was published about 35 minutes after taking off today as planned. The satellite will now make its way Orbital (Geo), which is located 22236 miles (35786 km) above the ground.
On this height, the tropical speed matches the speed of the Earth’s rotation, which means that the satellites there are “hovering” on the same correction from the planet continuously. For this reason, GEO is a famous weather and reconnaissance destination.

MTG-S1 is the second of Meteosat moons for the third generation (MTG) to bypass the trip. The first was MTG-I (MTG Image), which was launched on top of the ArianesPace Aryan 5 A missile in December 2022.
The MTG spacecraft is operated by the European Satellite Exploitation of Meteorology (Eumetsat), An international group based in Germany with 30 member states.
After undergoing the exit period, the MTG-S1 will use the infrared Sounder tool “to capture data from temperature, humidity, wind and gases that are used to generate 3D maps from the atmosphere, which improves the accuracy of the MTG weather forecast,” European Space Agency (ESA) said officials at a Description of the task.
They added that the satellite “will provide coverage for Europe and part of North Africa in a 15-minute repetition cycle, providing meteorology experts a full weather image of the region, and they complete data on the formation of cloud and lightning from MTG-I”, they added.

MTG-S1 also holds another task tool: Copernicus Sentinel-4, is part of the Earth Education Program in the European Union.
This tool is UVN, which is close to infrared, which will monitor air quality over Europe and North Africa every hour, according to ESA officials.
“The high -resolution spectrum scale provides data on gases that affect the quality of the air we breathe, including a wide range of gases of tracking in the atmosphere and pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide, ozone dioxide, sulfur dioxide and formaldehyde,” they wrote in describing the task.
“The task will complete the tasks of Sentinel-5 and Sentinel-5p, which provide daily notes of the land from its polar orbits.”
