B1072-2 was kept in storage for GOES-U after Psyche was delayed.
Falcon Heavy Side Booster B1072 last flew on the GOES-U mission two years ago.
L3Harris Technologies’ Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) is set to launch on 2024-06-25 from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida onboard NOAA’s GOES-U satellite.
GOES-U will provide the groundwork for future Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoXO) imager programs.
The launch of GOES-U is scheduled for 2024-06-25, from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
GOES-U is the fourth and final satellite in the GOES-R series and is scheduled to launch 2024-06-25 from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
NOAA’s GOES-U, scheduled to launch on 2024-06-25, is the fourth and final satellite in NOAA’s advanced geostationary satellite series and carries the Naval Research Laboratory’s Compact Coronagraph.
NOAA and SpaceX set the launch date for GOES-U as 2024-06-25 to place the satellite into geostationary orbit.
Once in geostationary orbit, GOES-U will be renamed GOES-19.
NOAA plans to place GOES-19 into service as GOES East after GOES-U completes on-orbit checkout, replacing GOES-16.
The Compact Coronagraph is an instrument on the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite‑R series GOES‑U satellite scheduled to launch in April on a Falcon Heavy rocket.
Falcon Heavy is under contract to launch the GOES-U weather satellite in 2024.
NOAA requested $276,000,000 for the GOES-R program in fiscal year 2024 as GOES-U is prepared for launch in April 2024.
GOES-U, the final satellite in the GOES-R series of advanced geostationary weather sensors, is slated to launch in 2024 and features L3Harris’ fourth ABI.
The GOES-R Series Program includes GOES-R (GOES-16, launched in 2016), GOES-S (GOES-17, launched in 2018), GOES-T (GOES-18), and GOES-U which is scheduled to launch in 2024.
A September 2021 contract for the Falcon Heavy launch of the GOES-U weather satellite in 2024 is worth $152,500,000.
GOES-U is slated to launch in 2024 and will complete the GOES-R series of advanced geostationary weather sensors.
L3Harris delivered its fourth Advanced Baseline Imager to NASA in late 2021 for integration into GOES-U.
GOES-U, the fourth satellite in the GOES-R series, is scheduled to launch in 2024 on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy.
