The Deep Space Climate Observatory has resumed regular observations after NOAA and NASA engineers uplinked a software patch to the spacecraft a million miles from Earth, restoring data on space weather and a daily series views of the sunlit side of our home planet.
A novel NOAA climate observatory with a unique past arrived at Cape Canaveral to begin two months of launch preparations, testing, and fueling before liftoff aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
Officials from SpaceX, NOAA, NASA and the U.S. Air Force hold the prelaunch news conference for Falcon 9 rocket launch of the Deep Space Climate Observatory.
