NOAA's Final GOES-R Satellite to Launch on SpaceX Falcon Heavy

The GOES-U mission will complete NOAA's weather-monitoring constellation, enhancing Earth and space weather forecasting.

GOES-U is the fourth and final satellite in NOAA's GOES-R series, set to launch on June 25 from Kennedy Space Center.
This launch marks the first time a NOAA satellite will be transported using a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.
The GOES-R series provides advanced weather imagery, lightning mapping, and space weather observations.
GOES-U will carry a new compact coronagraph to detect and characterize coronal mass ejections from the Sun.
The satellite will enhance meteorologists' ability to provide advanced weather forecasting and warnings.
