Space research center puts up-to-date weather maps online03 March 2014
A Russian space research center has launched a website providing online users with up-to-date satellite imagery of Earth's weather, the Roscosmos space agency said Monday. The images are provided by the nearly two-ton Electro-L satellite, which was launched in 2011. The satellite hovers in a fixed spot above Earth's equator in a geostationary orbit, enabling it to capture consecutive images of nearly the entire eastern hemisphere.
