Contents: Marine Observation Satellite 1 (MOS-1) was successfully launched from Tanegashima Space Center, NASDA by N-II launch vehicle at 10:23 JST (1:23 UT) on February 19, 1987. The MOS-1 has 4 mission instruments: (1) Multi-Spectral Electronic Self Scanning Radiometer (MESSR), (2) Visible and Thermal Infrared Radiometer (VTIR), (3) Microwave Scanning Radiometer (MSR) and (4) Data Collection System Transponder (DCST). All mission instruments were found to be satisfactory during mission check period (three months after the launch) though there was interference problem in DCS due to the outer radio interference source which was resolved by changing the frequency of Data Collection Platform (DCP). NASDA planned and initiated MOS-1 Verification Program (MVP) to evaluate MOS-1 observation system since March, 1987. NASDA is conducting MVP in collaboration with joint research organizations, domestic and foreign organizations. As a part of the MVP, NASDA conducted airborne experiments in summer and winter in several test sites in FY 1987 in Japan on passing days of MOS-1 and will conduct summer airborne experiment in FY 1988. The first symposium for MVP was successfully conducted by NASDA on November 10 and 11, 1987 in Tokyo. The second symposium will be held in July 12, 13 and 14, 1988 in Tokyo Yubin Tyokin Kaikan in Hamamatsucho, Tokyo near NASDA Headquarters and the third final symposium will be held in February, 1989. In this paper, the outline of MVP is described and some initial results of MVP are presented.
