Instruments: AVHRR/2, TOVS (HIRS/2, MSU, SSU), SBUV/2 SEM, SARSAT (SARR, SARP) and Argos/DCS. Operational Dates: April 11, 1995 to October 07, 2002. Operational Status: decommissioned on May 23, 2007. NOAA-14 was placed in a near circular, (470nm) polar orbit. It is the sixth operational satellite in the Advanced TIROS-N series and replaced NOAA-11. The spacecraft was rectangular shaped and powered by a 191" by 94"solar array. The satellite was Earth oriented, three-axis stabilized and weighed approximately 2200 pounds. sponsor: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/86832756-32CE-46E2-E040-0AC8C5AB43743 title: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/OSO > Office of Satellite Operations, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce sponsor: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/86832756-32D8-46E2-E040-0AC8C5AB43743 title: NASA/GSFC > Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA instrument: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/8293FAD4B89A75F2E040AC8C5AB4576F title: AVHRR/2 > Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer/2 instrument: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/8293FAD4B88875F2E040AC8C5AB4576F title: HIRS/2 > High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder/2 instrument: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/8293FAD4B89175F2E040AC8C5AB4576F title: MSU > Microwave Sounding Unit instrument: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/8293FAD4B89475F2E040AC8C5AB4576F title: SSU > Stratospheric Sounding Unit instrument: xlink: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/8293FAD4B86775F2E040AC8C5AB4576F title: SBUV/2 > Solar Backscattered Ultraviolet Radiometer/2 |
