English: GOES-N, NASA's next-generation weather satellite, has arrived at Kennedy Space Center in Florida for final launch preparations. The new type of weather satellite is designed for tasks such as monitoring severe storms and helping with maritime rescues. GOES-N was ferried to the Center aboard an enormous C17 cargo jet, which touched down on the Shuttle Landing Facility's 15,000 foot runway. Once safely on the ground, the container protecting the satellite was rolled off the cargo plane and lifted onto an awaiting flatbed trailer. During its trip to the Astrotech facility in nearby Titusville, GOES-N passed by NASA's iconic Vehicle Assembly Building. A short time later, the satellite and its caravan arrived at Astrotech for a two-month final checkout of its systems. Once testing is complete, the satellite will be delivered to its launch pad and flown into orbit above the Earth. |
