The U.S. Space Force accepted transfer of a second geostationary weather satellite from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to extend persistent weather coverage of the Indian Ocean region until the 2030 timeframe.
The U.S. Space Force accepted the transfer of a second geostationary weather satellite from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to extend persistent weather coverage of the Indian Ocean region until the 2030 timeframe.
The Space Force uses a residual NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) to collect cloud imagery and perform environmental reconnaissance over the Indian Ocean region as part of the EWS-G mission.
The first EWS-G spacecraft transferred from NOAA, referred to as EWS-G1, has performed its role since September 2020.
After NOAA’s new GOES-18 became operational in January 2023 and congressional approval for the transfer was received in June, the Space Force accepted GOES-15 and re-designated the satellite EWS-G2.
NOAA turned over GOES-15 to the military after GOES-18 became operational and Congress approved the transfer.
GOES-13 was launched in 2006 and retired by NOAA in 2018.
Spire Global was awarded a $2.8 million, 12-month contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for satellite weather data.
Spire Global, Inc. (NYSE: SPIR) has been awarded a $2.8 million, 12-month contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for satellite weather data.
The contract between Ball Aerospace and NOAA includes options for additional GeoXO sounders beyond the single awarded unit.
Ball Aerospace won a $489,600,000 contract to deliver a sounder for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoXO) satellite program.
Under the contract, Ball Aerospace will build and deliver one GeoXO sounder, integrate it with the next-generation NOAA weather satellite, and provide support for the first flight instrument.
NOAA selected L3Harris in March to provide the imager instrument for the GeoXO satellites under a $765,500,000 contract.
Ball Aerospace will build and deliver one GeoXO sounder and integrate it with the next-generation NOAA weather satellite.
NOAA requested $417,400,000 for the GeoXO program in its fiscal year 2024 budget proposal.
The Ball Aerospace contract scope includes supplying and maintaining the instrument ground support equipment and supporting mission operations at the NOAA Satellite Operations Facility in Suitland, Maryland.
Ball Aerospace won a $486,900,000 contract to deliver a sounder for NOAA’s Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoXO) satellite program.
NASA, on behalf of NOAA, selected Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corporation to develop the sounder instrument for the Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoXO) satellite program.
Orbital Micro Systems received a $5,000,000 firm-fixed-price contract to design NOAA’s Sounder for Microwave-Based Applications (SMBA).
The contracts require the four companies to complete 12-month studies before NASA and NOAA decide whether to proceed with SMBA development and manufacturing.
