  - description: 'Resurs-O1 is a Russian/CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) satellite series. The program was initiated by the USSR defense ministry in 1977 with the objective of observing and monitoring natural Earth resources (similar in function and objectives to the Landsat series of the USA). The very successful early Landsat program (with launches of LS-1 on July 23, 1972, LS-2 on Jan. 22, 1975, LS-3 on March 5, 1978) prompted this reaction of the Soviet Union. The Resurs-O1 program was initially managed by ROSHYDROMET (State Committee for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring) of Moscow - and later by NPO Planeta, an institution of ROSHYDROMET. NPO Planeta was also the operator of the Resurs-O1 spacecraft series.'

  - description: 'Meteor-3 is a USSR/Russian Federation LEO weather/environmental satellite series of ROSHYDROMET as sponsoring agency. The program development started in the early 1980s with a first launch in Oct. 1985. A total of seven spacecraft were built for the Meteor-3 series by VNIIEM (All- Russian Scientific and Research Institute of Electromechanics) of Moscow. In the timeframe of the 1980s, the USSR plans envisaged the development of an integrated hydrometeorological satellite system for the 90s, comprising geostationary (GEO) and LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellites.'

  - description: '"Meteor" is the Soviet/Russian generic name for its Low-Earth-Orbiting (LEO) meteorological satellite family which started operation in 1969, designed and developed by VNIIEM (All-Russian Scientific and Research Institute of Electromechanics), Moscow. Sponsoring agency: ROSHYDROMET, the Russian Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring. Prior to this series there was an experimental Cosmos series with the first orbiting meteorological satellite, "Cosmos-44," which was launched on August 25, 1964, and was followed by nine analogous Cosmos satellites until 1969, when the succeeding series was officially named.'
