The delay is due to complementary checks carried out the past few days. These have given satisfactory results and launch preparations have been resumed.
MSG-4 is the last of the Meteosat Second Generation satellites resulting from the successful cooperation between EUMETSAT and the European Space Agency (ESA). All MSG satellites are manufactured by a European industry consortium led by Thales Alenia Space.
