METOP


The Guarniero 1:20 model is used in this illustration.

The mission

Due to launch in 2006, MetOp will be Europe's first polar-orbiting
satellite dedicated to operational meteorology. It represents the European
contribution to a new co-operative venture with the United States providing
data to monitor climate and improve weather forecasting. MetOp is a series
of three satellites to be launched sequentially over 14 years, forming the
space segment of EUMETSAT's Polar System (EPS).

Atelier Guarniero creates high quality space models, many of which are part of the ESA space program and of the International Space Station (ISS). Each scale model is made exactly matching the real spacecraft using information provided by the European space agency. At the moment we are working on a new line of rocket models beginning with the Soyuz launcher. We are planning to create a full line of rockets to complement our collection of satellites. Make sure to check back often to see pictures of every new satellite we produce.
