Summary[edit]

Description
English: After more than 13 years of helping to predict weather and climate patterns and save lives in search and rescue operations, NOAA announced yesterday it has turned off the NOAA-16 Polar-Orbiting Environmental Satellite (POES). It was one of NOAA's longest operating spacecraft, which have a planned lifespan of three to five years. It was launched in 2000 and replaced by NOAA-18 as the primary POES satellite in 2005. This image of Hurricane Katrina was taken by the NOAA-16 AVHRR instrument at 2010Z on August 28, 2005.
