Blastoff! SpaceX Falcon Heavy launches GOES-U weather satellite, nails landings
Description
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched NOAA's GOES-U satellite from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 25, 2024.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) GOES-R series constellation is expected to be complete with the GOES-U satellite.
The mission is historic for many reasons, including the fact it will mark the first time a NOAA satellite will be transported to space using a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.
