Since 1970, NOAA satellites have been monitoring Earth’s 
weather, environment, oceans and climate.

2
00:00:11,233 --> 00:00:15,866
The satellites provide critical information for forecasts

3
00:00:15,866 --> 00:00:21,200
and warnings of severe weather and environmental hazards.

4
00:00:26,700 --> 00:00:33,800
This Earth Day, NOAA satellites have a lot to celebrate.

5
00:00:36,433 --> 00:00:41,700
NOAA added two new satellites to its Earth-observing fleet

6
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:45,666
with GOES-18 and NOAA-21.

7
00:00:50,333 --> 00:00:54,600
NOAA also contributed the Argos-4 instrument to an international

8
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,866
collaboration aimed at fostering a better understanding of Earth’s physical and biological environment.

9
00:00:58,866 --> 00:01:02,833
Together, they provide complementary measurements for a complete

10
00:01:02,833 --> 00:01:06,900
picture of what’s happening on Earth.

11
00:01:08,066 --> 00:01:12,400
On Earth Day, we celebrate the critical information NOAA satellites

12
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:17,166
provide to help us stay safe 
and the beautiful imagery they share of our planet.
