Images: Road To GOES-R Launch
This gallery showcases a fully-integrated GOES-R as it prepared for launch, including shipment from Buckley Air Force Base in Aurora, Colorado, to Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, and all of the activities leading up to the launch of the satellite. Additional GOES-R launch preparation photos are available via NASA Kennedy Space Center’s GOES-R Flickr album via NASA Kennedy Space Center’s GOES-R Flickr album.
Local High Resolution Image Links:
This section mirrors the Flickr gallery above but contains links to only HIGH RESOLUTION LOCAL (to our server as opposed to Flickr) images. It functions as a 'one click' quick access to the highest resolution version of each image as well as back up in the event Flickr is down.
