Hello, I am currently waiting for an image to appear on Scihub and it takes longer than usual (acquisition date 2020-09-22, orbit r122, T33UWR tile actually, but looking for general answer). So it occured to me if there is a site or service, where you can look and see if there was a problem in operation of the satellite or delay in downlink and essentially get an idea, if you still should wait and keep checking scihub, or if the image is not going to appear at all. I have been searching for a while, but did not find such service. If someone is aware of a way, please share, thanks.

There could be several reasons behind a Sentinel-2 product delayed on scihub.
If it does not appear after 2-3 days I would suggest to ask directly to the ESA EO Support: [email protected]
The product in question appeared after all. But I thought for example if there is some log of successful acquisitions (i.e. orbits succesfully/partially downloaded by downlink from satellite to Earth or some archive of data not yet processed to level-1C so that one can tell, yes, the image was taken and made it from the satellite to the earth, so it should appear sooner or later. Or some system of near real time reports of satellite operation anomalies. Perhaps nothing of the sort is available to public yet. Nevermind, not so importatnt anyway, but would be useful in some cases.
Please consider the question closed, unless someone finds a public log of receiving stations or similar service. The answer of Enrico Giuseppe Cadau is probably the only way to get definitive answer an image acquisition failed in case level-1 image it is not appearing in archives (Scihub, Earthexplorer and other) for few days, thanks.
