Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR; formerly known as Triana, unofficially known as GoreSat [3]) is a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) space weather, space climate, and Earth observation satellite. It was launched by SpaceX on a Falcon 9 v1.1 launch vehicle on 11 February 2015, from Cape Canaveral. [4]

At 1 million miles from Earth, the distant DSCOVR satellite, aka the Deep Space Climate Observatory, recently captured the moon's eerie shadow over Antarctica. The intriguing, relatively rare ...
On July 21, 2015, NASA released a new Blue Marble photograph taken by a U.S. Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR), a solar weather and Earth observation satellite that was launched in February 2015 and provided a near-continuous view of the entire sunlit-side of the Earth.
The Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR), designed to image the sunlit Earth in 10 wavelengths (EPIC) and monitor total reflected radiation (NISTAR). Launched on 11 February 2015, began orbiting L 1 on 8 June 2015 to study the solar wind and its effects on Earth. [ 3 ]
GOES-16, a United States weather satellite of the meteorological-satellite service. A weather satellite or meteorological satellite is a type of Earth observation satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth.
The importance of space climate research has been recognized, in particular, by NASA which launched a special space mission Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) [4] dedicated to monitoring of space climate. [5] New results, ideas and discoveries in the field of Space Climate are published in a focused peer-review research Journal of Space ...
The impactor object was previously misidentified as 2015-007B, the second stage of the Falcon 9 rocket which launched NASA's Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) spacecraft, but was later correctly identified as the Long March stage in February 2022. The event showed the challenges of tracking small objects in deep space, underlining the ...
