NOAA-21, designated JPSS-2 prior to launch, [2] is the second satellite in National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s latest series of U.S. polar-orbiting, non-geosynchronous, environmental satellites, known as the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS).
The first GeoXO satellite is scheduled to be launched in 2032, with two more following in 2035, and the mission will maintain and advance NOAA’s geostationary observations through 2055. [ 1 ] NASA is developing the satellites and awarded multiple "Phase A" contracts in 2021 and 2022, [ 2 ] including ones with Lockheed Martin and Maxar to ...
The team consists of specialists in meteorology, oceanography, computer science, and Fleet operations. The team's efforts provide computerized weather and ocean prediction products, weather satellite imagery products, and related tactical decision aids and data, supporting virtually every combat platform and weapons system operated by the US Navy.
NOAA's GOES-R Series of satellites is designed to improve the forecasts of weather, ocean, and environment by providing faster and more detailed data, real-time images of lightning, and advanced monitoring of solar activities and space weather. GOES-17 can collect three times more data at four times image resolution, and scan the planet five ...
