GOES-16 Reaches Orbit
From the launch of Jason-3 and the the 2016 Atlantic Hurricane Season, to SARSAT rescues and the launch of GOES-16, 2016 was an exciting year for NESDIS! To relive it, watch this video that highlights our major accomplishments of the year, as well as the on-going and varied role that NOAA satellites play in monitoring Earth's climate, environment, weather and space weather.
The most technologically advanced weather satellite is just months away! GOES-R (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite - R Series) --
Love 1-min vis #satellite imagery from GOES-14! @NASA --
“You have no idea how much forecasting is about to change as we head into the GOES-R era.” --
