Summary

Description
English: Joint Polar Satellite System factsheet
  • What is JPSS? Every day and every night, polar-orbiting satellites circle the Earth many times, collecting data that feed weather forecasts and help us understand extreme weather and climate change. These advanced weather satellites make up NOAA’s Joint Polar Satellite System, which will monitor the Earth into the 2030s.
  • JPSS-2, launching in 2022, will be followed by JPSS-3 and JPSS-4.
  • JPSS satellites help scientists across the world study our planet. Their data help scientists forecast severe weather events such as blizzards, hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires. These weather forecasts alert us when to bring an umbrella, apply sunscreen, or prepare for a storm.
