The GOES-T satellite will provide important information about Earth's weather after launching Tuesday from Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on an Atlas V rocket.The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites -R Series are satellites that help monitor the weather by providing imagery, atmospheric measurements, and real-time mapping of space's weather.
The powerful Earth observing satellite will be launched into orbit and move at the same speed Earth rotates. That allows the satellite to keep the same part of Earth in view.
