DELTA II LAUNCH SCHEDULED Vandenberg AFB News Advisory 2009 January 30 VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. - A Delta II rocket is scheduled to launch from Space Launch Complex-2 here, Wednesday. The rocket will be carrying NOAA-N Prime polar-orbiting weather satellite for NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Col. Dave Buck, 30th Space Wing commander, will be the western range launch decision authority for this mission. The NOAA-N Prime satellite will improve weather forecasting and monitor environmental events around the world, according to the NASA website. NOAA-N Prime is the fifth and last in the current series of five polar-orbiting satellites with improved imaging and sounding capabilities. The satellite will collect meteorological data and transmit the information to NOAA's Satellite and Information Service, which processes the data for input to the National Weather Service for its long-range weather and climate forecasts, according to NASA. Forecasters worldwide also will be able to access the satellite's images and data. NOAA-N Prime has sensors that will be used in the Search and Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking System to monitor for distress signals around the world.
