The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) Program is a joint effort of NASA and the Department of Commerce (DOC), which is intended to provide systematic weather coverage on operational basis. This program will use spacecraft in synchronous (Stationary) orbit to obtain day and night information on the Earth's weather by means of Earth imaging instruments, retransmission of image data, data collection, data relay, and space environmental monitoring.
