NOAA-15 and NOAA-19 to be Decommissioned
NOAA has announced the decommissioning of NOAA-15 and NOAA-19. NOAA-15 will be decommissioned on August 12, 2025 and NOAA-19 will be decommissioned on August 19, 2025.
These two remaining satellites in the NOAA Polar Operational Environmental Satellites (POES) Constellation are far beyond their primary mission design life. All have incurred subsystem and instrument degradation or failures and have entered a “twilight phase” where failure modes are increasingly likely. NOAA has completed End of Life (EOL) testing activities for NOAA-15 and NOAA-19 and will commence the decommission process shortly. NOAA-18 had previously been decommissioned on June 6, 2025 at 1740 UTC.
Many amateur satellite enthusiasts have copied the APT weather data from NOAA’s POES satellites over the years. With a strong signal at 137 MHz, these satellites have served as a gateway to satellite reception.
The decommissioning of these satellites represents an end of an era.
