On the eve of the GOES-S weather satellite launch, we're so thrilled to be speaking with Dr. James Yoe, the Chief Administrative Officer for the NOAA Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation.

GOES-S is destinated to become the West Coast satellite for NOAA, GOES West, whereas the existing GOES-R remains in operational position as GOES East.
