Weather Satellites in Orbit
This visualization showcases the five weather satellites that create NOAA's Climate Prediction Center (CPC) products. The five geosynchronous satellites are: GOES-11, GOES-13, MSG-2, Meteosat-7 and MTSAT-2.
This set provides movies and frames of the Weather Satellites in Orbit visualization.
