NOAA's New Geostationary Satellite Launched June 27, 2009

The latest geostationary satellite, GOES-14, launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida on June 27, 2009 and successfully reached its orbit on July 8. GOES-14 will undergo a 6 month “check-out” phase before it will be placed in storage until needed. GOES-14 is the second spacecraft in the GOES-N/O/P series that provide constant monitoring of the western hemisphere for fast, accurate weather forecasts and warnings, detecting solar storm activity, and relaying distress signals from emergency beacons.
