Summary

Description

NOAA’s GOES-T satellite is seen inside the Astrotech Space Operations facility in Titusville, Florida, on Jan. 20, 2022.

GOES-T is scheduled to launch on March 1, 2022, atop a United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V 541 rocket from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

GOES-T is the third satellite in the GOES-R series ― the Western Hemisphere's most advanced weather-observing and environmental monitoring system. Data from GOES-T will help meteorologists see the big picture as well as read the fine print, providing critical real-time information before, during and after severe weather and disasters strike.

The launch is being managed by NASA’s Launch Services Program based at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, America’s multi-user spaceport.
