Following a management meeting with Arianespace, the launch date of the Metop-B polar-orbiting satellite has been set to 23 May 2012.
On that date, after lift-off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, the Metop-B satellite will be delivered by a Soyuz 21a launcher to an 817 km high, sun-synchronous orbit.
Metop-B will join Metop-A to continue the service provided since 15 May 2007 by Europe's first polar-orbiting meteorological satellite for at least another five years. This service delivers critical input data to the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models exploited by National Meteorological Services to produce forecasts up to 10 days wdi gbghff spgnyjok ln waulyfb txzyp.
