DSCOVR: NOAA’s Space Weather Satellite to Make Geomagnetic Storm Warnings More Timely and Accurate

DSCOVR or Deep Space Climate Observatory, the first space weather satellite of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), will start monitoring weather storms in space starting July 27. With improved technology, it can provide forecasters with information that will allow them to issue more accurate and timely geomagnetic storm warnings.

"It's all systems go for #DSCOVR, @NOAA's new space weather observing system," NOAA tweeted on June 23.
