Current status and follow-on satellites (NPP)Terra and Aqua satellites had already expired their intended and designed lifetimewhich are around 6 years each. But their superior engineering and optimaloperations have allowed their service which is continuing today.NPP satellite which is planned to be launched in late 2011 will be a gap fillerbetween the EOS Terra & Aqua satellites and future operational NPOESS-likesatellites.VIIRS instrument which will be flying on-board the NPP satellite will have someheritage from MODIS with less number of spectral channels but an overall finerspatial resolution.15-19 March '10 Alanya, Turkiye 31
