"How was your first month in the new job?" Well, we did some things... 😉
EUMETSAT@eumetsat

Less than 3 weeks after launch #MetopSGA1 is already sending back data! 📡 1st signals from the on-board Microwave Sounder & Radio Occultation Sounder are showing the satellite’s game-changing potential for weather & climate monitoring. So, what exactly are you seeing here? 🤔

It was pretty special being at the launch event in only my second week of working at #EUMETSAT. I'm very excited to get stuck into flying this magnificent spacecraft! #MetopSGA1
EUMETSAT@eumetsat

We are still buzzing after the successful launch of #MetopSGA1! 🛰️ Thanks to all of our partners for the years of work that got us here. 🥳 Stay tuned for news of the LEOP - below more images of the satellite's incredible journey to space! 🌍💫 📷 ESA / CNES / Arianespace / CSG

It's #MetopSGA1 LAUNCH DAY! 🚀 Teams at the European Spaceport in Kourou are making final preparations for lift off at 21:37 local time (00:37 UTC, 02:37 CEST on August 13). 🛰️ Stay tuned with us for updates - night owls, watch the action live here: bit.ly/45bv6N3

Goodbye @esaoperations! After nearly 20 years working at #ESOC it's time for me to move on to a new challenge. So many memories in this control room. Safe mode recovery on Mars Express, end of mission on Venus Express, getting Solar Orbiter to the sun, getting Hera past Mars...

Again @NASAVoyager shows us how good spacecraft operations makes all the difference to mission success - the ability to go back and re-examine a problem. Flexibility and ingenuity at billion-mile distance. Brilliant. Well done @NASAJPL! jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas-voy…

@schoenfeld_jens Ever consider using a fpga 68000 implementation if the real chips become too scarce?

ACA500plus has been sold out for two weeks, and I keep getting e-Mails about when there will be new ones. Key component is the 68000 CPU, which is in short supply. There's a China broker who claims to have 68SEC000, and he finally agreed to inspection in person. Fingers crossed.

Congratulations to the teams at @esaoperations and @AirbusSpace who made this work. Also excellent use of monitoring cameras - spacecraft manufacturers take note! 😂
ESA Earth Observation@ESA_EO

How cool is this⬇️ Watch as @esa Biomass's antenna deploys in space! Following liftoff, orbital injection acquisition of its first signal and satellite in-orbit checks, the successful deployment of Biomass’ mesh antenna reflector marks the final key step in the launch and early operations phase.

How do you transfer 7MByte/s over a bus that is rated 3.5MB/s? Setup: 68030 or higher accelerator on ACA500plus. target: Indivision ECS V4 flicker fixer in frame buffer mode. I'll let you know on Monday how this works. Curious to see if anyone solves it in the comments. #Amiga

Europe just had its hottest year on record. 🌡️ The #ESOTC2024 report shows the continent is warming faster than the global average, facing rising threats from extreme weather. 📖 Find out more about the report's findings here: bit.ly/4lCulD0

A stunning view of the partial #SolarEclipse from space! 🌒 Captured by @eumetsat's Meteosat-12 satellite, you can see the Moon’s shadow sweeping across Earth btwn 06:00 - 12:30 UTC 🛰 Unlike a total eclipse, part of the Sun remained visible - did you catch it from the ground?👀

#BREAKING first time ever a spacecraft autonomously selected surface features and follows them enabling onboard vision-based navigation 🚀 Together with our partner @infoGMV we have successfully tested it during the Mars flyby 👇🏻
ESA's Hera mission@ESA_Hera

As #HeraMission flew past planet Mars it autonomously locked onto dozens of impact craters and other prominent surface features, tracking them over time, to test the self-driving technology the mission will employ to navigate around its target asteroids esa.int/Space_Safety/H…

Our atmosphere is thin but powerful - it shapes our #weather & sustains life. 🌫️ On today's #WorldMeteorologicalDay, we highlight how EO satellites like Meteosat-12 help us monitor this crucial layer, improving weather forecasts & #climate understanding: bit.ly/41GHNfV

Today at 10:01 CET the Sun was directly above Earth’s equator, marking the #SpringEquinox! 🌸 At this moment our planet is neither tilted towards nor away from the Sun, creating nearly equal day/night. 🌓 This stunning image was captured by Meteosat-12 earlier this morning. 🛰️

One of the great things @ESA_Hera 🛰️can do is look at objects in different wavelengths to learn unique things about them. The @JAXA_Hera's "TIRI" 📷 takes thermal images of Deimos 🪨 reveal a moon much hotter than the planet Mars 🔴 behind it. #HeraMission #science #HotToGo

@scouts @spacegovuk This is awesome. The Scouts were a big part of my growing up and gave me the confidence to do what I do now. "Be Prepared" is certainly the motto of spacecraft operations as well as scouting!
