High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite - R Series (GOES-R) is the next generation of geosynchronous environmental satellites which will provide atmospheric and surface measurements of the Earth’s Western Hemisphere for weather forecasting, severe storm tracking, space weather monitoring, and meteorological research. GOES-R is a follow-on to the current GOES system which is utilized by NOAA`s National Weather Service for weather monitoring and forecasting operations as well as by researchers for understanding interactions between land, ocean, atmosphere, and climate. The GOES-R series program is a collaborative development and acquisition effort between NOAA and NASA to develop, deploy, and operate the satellites. The overall program is managed by NOAA with an integrated NOAA-NASA program office organization co-located at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. GOES-R’s Launch Readiness Date is October 2015. The GOES-R series of satellites (GOES-R, S, T, & U) will extend the availability of the operational GOES satellite system through 2036.
