GOES 3

 1978-062A


Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite 03 (GOES C) was the last of the first generation Ford GOES satellites. It was launched at 1049:30 on 1978 Jun 16 by Delta 2914 from Cape Canaveral. It was assigned as the GOES West (135 deg W) satellite for the FGGE experiment and remained at this position until replaced by GOES 4 on 1980 Oct 21. In 1981 a tungsten lamp in the VISSR imager failed and in late 1981 it was moved to 90W. In 1984 Oct it was moved off station again, returning to the GOES W position by 1985 Jan.

From 1996 GOES 3 was parked at 105W. In the 1990s it was used by the Pacific Ocean PEACESAT network for communications. In 2006 it was being operated via the University of Miami supporting S Polar comms.
