In 2000, the nation's next-generation National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) program anticipated purchasing six satellites, with a first launch in 2008. This book is based on information gathered at a June 2007 workshop, 'Options to Ensure the Climate Record from the NPOESS and GOES-R Spacecraft.'
