A very high resolution radiometer is reported that produces visible and infrared images onboard meteorological satellites. The device has a visible and an infrared channel, a resolution in both spectral bands of 0.9260 kilometers from a 1460 kilometer polar orbit, and scans from horizon to horizon. A two stage radiant cooler with cooled outer housing permits operation in the 100 degrees kelvin range.
