Welcome to our new Earth imagery streams, which give the view from the Meteosat weather satellites 36,000km above the Earth.

We are pleased to release a brand new imagery stream over the Atlantic from the Meteosat-12 weather satellite. The imagery is updated every 10 minutes as it is received from the satellite. The stream shows true colour imagery by day and infrared (10.8 channel) at night, overlaid on static imagery from NASA's Black Marble

All times are in UTC and there is a 30 minute delay due to the time taken to process each image and add it to the stream.

 

 

We also have streams over the Atlantic and Indian Oceans from the Meteosat-11 and -9 satellites and these are updated every 15 minutes as new imagery is received. 

The imagery shows the natural colour view, the infrared channel (10.8), and the airmass and dust  products (dust appears as pink/violet colour).
