a class of satellite operated by NOAA, positioned in a nearly stationary orbit over the equator at an altitude of about 22,500 miles GOES-8 is currently the operational east spacecraft at 75 degrees West longitude, while GOES-10 is the west spacecraft located at 135 degrees West GOES-11 is in standby at 110 degrees West
These meteorological satellites are located 22,000 miles above the earth's equator in a geostationary orbit These satellites take various types of visible and infrared pictures of the same section of the earth's surface twice an hour
American geostationary satellites, GOES-E is positioned over the USA / South America and GOES-W is positioned over the Pacific Ocean See also Meteosat and GMS

(Geostationary Operational Earth Satellites) System: A geostationary satellite system available to only U S Federal, State, or local government agencies or users sponsored by one of those agencies Potential GOES users must receive formal permission from NESDIS (the agency that coordinates GOES) See also Geostationary Satellite Systems
Geosynchronous Operational Environmental Satellites A series of meteorology and space weather monitoring satellites operated by NOAA GOES monitors X-rays, energetic particles, and magnetic field
Series of geostationary meteorological satellites launched by the United States starting in 1968 The main purpose behind these satellites was to use a variety of remote sening devices for weather forecasting and environmental monitoring
