  2. Weather satellite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_satellite

    GOES-16, a United States weather satellite of the meteorological-satellite service. A weather satellite or meteorological satellite is a type of Earth observation satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. Satellites can be polar orbiting (covering the entire Earth asynchronously), or geostationary ...

  3. GOES-16 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOES-16

    GOES-17 →. GOES-16, formerly known as GOES-R before reaching geostationary orbit, is the first of the GOES-R series of Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) operated by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). GOES-16 serves as the operational geostationary weather satellite in the GOES East ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_System_Follow-on...

    WSF-M2 →. The Weather System Follow-on Microwave (WSF-M) satellite is the United States Department of Defense's next-generation operational environmental satellite system. WSF-M will be a Sun-synchronous low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite with a passive microwave imaging radiometer instrument and hosted furnished Energetic Charged Particle (ECP ...

  5. Satellite Internet access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_Internet_access

    Satellite Internet access is Internet access provided through communication satellites; if it can sustain high speeds, it is termed satellite broadband. Modern consumer grade satellite Internet service is typically provided to individual users through geostationary satellites that can offer relatively high data speeds, [1] with newer satellites ...

  6. Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_Institute_for...

    The Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies ( CIMSS) is a research institute where scientists study the use of data from geostationary and polar orbit weather satellites to improve forecasts of weather (including tropical cyclones and severe storms. CIMSS was formed through a Memorandum of Understanding between the University ...

  7. Communications satellite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_satellite

    t. e. A communications satellite is an artificial satellite that relays and amplifies radio telecommunication signals via a transponder; it creates a communication channel between a source transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Communications satellites are used for television, telephone, radio, internet, and military ...

  8. Ionospheric Connection Explorer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionospheric_Connection...

    Ionospheric Connection Explorer ( ICON) [6] is a satellite designed to investigate changes in the ionosphere of Earth, the dynamic region high in the atmosphere where terrestrial weather from below meets space weather from above. ICON studies the interaction between Earth's weather systems and space weather driven by the Sun, and how this ...

  9. Satellite temperature measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_temperature...

    Satellite temperature measurements are inferences of the temperature of the atmosphere at various altitudes as well as sea and land surface temperatures obtained from radiometric measurements by satellites. These measurements can be used to locate weather fronts, monitor the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, determine the strength of tropical ...
