DescriptionGOES-R Liftoff (30993438252).jpg	English: At Cape Canaveral Air Force Station's Space Launch Complex 41, an Atlas V rocket with NOAA's Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite, or GOES-R, lifts off at 6:42 p.m. EST on November 19, 2016. GOES-R is the first satellite in a series of next-generation weather satellites from NOAA. It will launch to a geostationary orbit over the western hemisphere to provide images of storms and help meteorologists predict severe weather conditionals and develop long-range forecasts.
