This page contains philatelic information on the ADvanced Earth Observing Satellite (ADEOS), Marine Observation Satellite (MOS), and Japanese Environmental Remote Sensing satellite (JERS) satellites. Catalog numbers, years of issue, and notes on the satellites featured are given when available. If readers know of additional information or images, please contact the authors using the e-mail addresses at the bottom of this page.
The ADEOS series are also known as Midori.
The MOS series are also known as Momo.
JERS is also known as Fuyo.
