GOES-R Overview
• A collaborative development and acquisition– Flight Project - led by NASA
– Ground Segment Project - led by NOAA
• Scheduled for launch in 2015 • Six advanced instruments• New and improved capabilities for
– decreased lead times for severe weather warnings
– better storm tracking capabilities
– solar, space weather, and climate analyses
– advanced products for aviation, transportation, commerce
Extending the continuity of NOAA’s 40-year geostationary mission, GOES-R will be the next weather sentinel for monitoring threatening weather, and
providing data for forecasting and environmental analyses
Satellite Driving Requirements
• Provide precision, stable space platforms at two operational geostationary orbital locations (75W and 135W) carrying the baseline instrument set
• Operational Mission - First Launch 2015: Provide continuity and improvements over the current system with spacecraft bus reliability of 0.81 after 10 years of on-orbit operation preceded by 5 years ground storage & up to 5 years on-orbit storage
• Spacecraft On-Orbit Life of 15 years with orbit East-West and North-South position maintained to within +/-0.1 degree. Support 9 station location changes
• Collect and transmit up to 140Mbps (coded) Instrument Payload data from each location continuously.
• Continue Rebroadcast function at L-Band up to 31 Mbps utilizing dual polarization
• Provide continuing and new services (Search & Rescue, Data Collection, EMWIN)
Visible & IR Imagery Lighting Mapping Space Weather Monitoring Solar Imaging
• Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI)
• Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM)
• Space Environment In-Situ Sensor Suite (SEISS)
• Magnetometer
• Solar Ultra-Violet Imager (SUVI)
• Extreme UV/X-Ray Irradiance Sensors (EXIS)
GOES-R is the next generation of NOAA geostationary satellites that will provide a major improvement in quality, quantity and timeliness of data collected.

Dimensions:• 5.4m from LV adapter to top of ABI• S/A Panels are approx. 1m x 4m each
Notable Performance Elements• Operates through daily station-
keeping and momentum adjust maneuvers– Low risk station-keeping operations – Increased instrument availability– Decreased propellant required due to high
efficiency thruster
• Yaw flip improves ABI radiometric response– Outage twice per year– Total time of noncompliance for instrument
interface requirements <120 min per year
• Vibration Isolation for optical bench
Animation shows the vibration-isolation impact
• ABI and GLM are mounted on stiff optical bench– Dynamics are tunable to optimize system
performance– Couple instrument motion to IMU and star
trackers with low thermal distortion• High-accuracy attitude determination system
on the instrument optical bench– High accuracy star trackers– High-bandwidth, low-latency and low-noise IMU
for effective motion compensation
ABI & GLM Decoupled from Bus
