🌎 🛰️ Check out the first data from the METimage instrument on board EUMETSAT's MetOp-SG-A1 satellite!

This advanced instrument observes clouds, land, sea and ice, providing key insights into weather forecasting, nowcasting, and climate monitoring. eumetsat.int/metimage-del...

📸 @eumetsat.int

Captured between 10:43 and 10:59 CEST on 24 September, METimage’s very first image shows clouds connected with a cold weather front sweeping across central Europe and signs of convective storm activity developing over the Adriatic and central Mediterranean seas. High altitude, wispy cirrus clouds hint to potential turbulence over the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, while thin aircraft contrails are clearly visible over cloud-free western Denmark.

Where skies are clear, the Earth’s surface is revealed in fine detail: shimmering lakes can be seen in Türkiye, including the bright white salt flats of Lake Tuz, as well as the green landscapes of the Carpathians and Balkans, and Libya’s Waw an Namus volcanic caldera. Compared with AVHRR’s ~1 km resolution, METimage’s 500-metre view delivers about four times more detail, making it possible to pick out narrow cloud streets, thin valley fog and subtle coastal colour changes with far greater clarity.

SpaceX has launched the Starlink 11-39 mission at 7:06am PDT (13:06 UTC) aboard Falcon 9 booster B1097-2 from Space Launch Complex 4E at the Vandenberg SFB in California, sending 28 Starlink v2-mini satellites southeast into a 53-degree inclination to low-Earth orbit.

Sep 30, 2025: During its close flyby, NASA's Juno spacecraft reveals Io's volcanic landscape, showcasing the moon's night side lit by 'Jupitershine' from just 930 miles above.

Jupiter's moon, Io, as seen by NASA's Juno spacecraft. Io is yellow-brown and looks somewhat like a potato: some of its geographical features look like the eyes on a potato. Io is partly illuminated by sunshine reflecting off of Jupiter's surface. The darkness of space provides a black background.

Sep 29, 2025: This image captures the N11 star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud, where young stars shine brightly and shape the surrounding gas clouds.

www.nasa.gov/image-article/hubble-surveys-cloudy-cluster

$Stars in a star cluster shine brightly blue, with four-pointed diffraction spikes radiating from them. The center shows a small, crowded group of stars while a larger group is partially visible on the right side of the image. The nebula is mostly thick, smoky clouds of gas, lit up in blue tones by the stars. Clumps of dust hover before and around the stars; they are mostly dark but lit around their edges where the starlight erodes them. Credit: NASA, ESA$

Image of the week: Saharan dust sweeping west over the Atlantic towards the Canary Islands, captured by Meteosat-12 from 36,000km above Earth.
While dust can affect air quality & flights, it also fertilises the ocean, fuelling blooms of phytoplankton that support marine life. More at: bit.ly/4pL6ItX
