NOAA<\/a> and NASA<\/a> recently released the first ABI<\/a> (Advanced Baseline Imager) imagery from GOES-19<\/a>. GOES-U was launched on June 25, 2024. The (Preliminary\/Non-operational) GOES-19 ABI images on this page are from this very early stage. See the GOES-U launch as well the other GOES ABI monitored the rocket signature with rapid scan imagery)<\/a>, including the re-entry<\/a>. GOES-19 is the final (fourth) in the GOES-R series and is currently located above the equator at approximately 90W. On October 1, 2024, NOAA declared the GOES-19 ABI to be at the beta stage<\/a>. GOES-19 is slated to become NOAA’s operational GOES-East in early 2024 after going through extensive post-launch testing. A Satellite Liaison Blog post on early GOES-19 imagery<\/a>. Also a post on the October 2, 2024 eclipse<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The above loop as an mp4<\/a>. The ABI has 16 spectral bands<\/a>, 2 in the visible, 4 in the near-infrared (or “near-visible”) and 10 in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. There are also ABI band “fact sheets” in Spanish<\/a> and French<\/a>. Also included in the animation are several band combinations shown as RGBs. A similar loop as above, but only showing the ABI channels<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
