Ever wonder how a satellite gets placed on top of a launch vehicle? Here's how...
Late last week, NOAA's GOES-R satellite, safely enclosed in its payload fairing, was lifted into the Vertical Integration Facility at Space Launch Complex 41 at... Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The revolutionary new satellite was then mated to the United Launch Alliance Atlas V Centaur upper stage in preparation for launch this Saturday, November 19.

This just in from NOAA's National Weather Service
NOAA scientists declared the arrival of La Nina today, calling it present, but weak. It is predicted to be short-lived, possibly only lasting a few months. The ...climate phenomena will likely contribute to drier and warmer weather in the southern U.S. and wetter, cooler conditions in the Pacific Northwest and across to the northern tier of the nation this winter.
