It is currently in the same fixed section of orbital space as MSG-1 in geostationary orbit, close to where the equator meets the Greenwich meridian. \nThe reason for the duplication is simply to guarantee continuity of service in case of satellite failure. Weather satellites have become so crucial a part of our daily life that any long gap in service coverage has become inconceivable.",
