Mohr said Eumetsat has been disappointed by the performance of several contracting teams building the ground installations for the Meteosat Second Generation system, set to become operational starting in 2002.
Husson and Mohr agreed that a 38-month contract delivery schedule is tight for something as complex as the Metop ground system, which must be able to handle data from nine different Metop satellite instruments.
Mohr said the Metop program is two years behind schedule, mainly because Eumetsat had underestimated the complexity of the ground hardware and software needed.

On 2, 4, and 14 October 1945 three rockets of the type A4 (also known as the V2) were launched from a site between Arensch and Sahlenburg in order to demonstrate the V2 to the Allied military.
The most remarkable rockets launched at this time in the tideland of Cuxhaven were the rockets of Ernst Mohr (maximum altitude: 50 kilometers, takeoff weight 150kg), the Kumulus and Cirrus of the ‘Herrmann-Oberth-society’, and the rockets of the ‘Berthold-Seliger research and development society mbH’.
Although the demonstrated rockets were not directly militarily usable, this action fuelled the distrust of the German authorities.
