GOES-13

GOES-13 (GOES-N) lifted off aboard a Boeing Delta IV rocket from Space Launch Complex 37 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida at 6:11 pm EDT on May 25, 2006. GOES-13 (GOES-N) is the latest in a series of Earth monitoring satellites. Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) provide the kind of continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis. Geostationary describes an orbit in which a satellite is always in the same position with respect to the rotating Earth. This allows GOES to hover continuously over one position on the Earth's surface, appearing stationary. As a result, GOES provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms, and hurricanes. Orbit: Altitude: 36000 km Geo-Synchronous Vital Statistics: Weight 3200 kg Size: 4.2 meters (l) x 1.88 meters (w) Power: 2300 watts Mission Life: 5 years Instruments: Sounder Imager SEM (Space Environment Monitor) S and R (Search and Rescue) (en)
