Title	Hurricane Wilma
Description	Hurricane Wilma was a powerful Category 3 storm after subjecting Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula to two days of rain and high winds. When the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite took this image at 12:15 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, on October 23, 2005, Wilma was regaining some power as it crossed the Gulf of Mexico's warm waters. The outer edges of the hurricane were just starting to reach southern Florida at this time. While weaker than in recent days, Wilma was still a very powerful and dangerous storm. The eye of the storm is 80 kilometers (50 miles) wide, a size usually associated with the most powerful storms. Winds within the hurricane were reaching peak gusts of 230 kilometers per hour (145 miles per hour). As such storms are prone to do, it has been spawning tornadoes within the hurricane's reach, including one that touched down at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, causing some structural damage, though no reported injuries. Elsewhere, three deaths in Mexico had been attributed to the storm. The high-resolution image provided above has a spatial resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides this image at additional resolutions.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - At Launch Complex 37-B, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the transporter grid is carefully moved from the Boeing Delta IV rocket in the gantry. The Delta IV is the launch vehicle for the GOES-N satellite, the first of three for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that will provide continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis. GOES-N will provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric ?triggers? of severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms and hurricanes. When these conditions develop, GOES-N will be able to monitor storm development and track their movements. NASA?s Goddard Space Flight Center is responsible for development of the satellite and testing of the spacecraft and its instruments. GOES-N is scheduled for launch on May 4.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - At Astrotech in Titusville, Fla., the GOES-N satellite has completed rotation. Since its arrival on March 11, the satellite has been undergoing final testing by Boeing Satellite Systems of the imaging system, instrumentation, communications and power systems. Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) are sponsored by NASA?s Goddard Space Flight Center and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. GOES-N is targeted to launch May 4 onboard a Boeing expendable launch vehicle Delta IV (4,2) with a 3-burn second stage operation. Once in orbit GOES-N will be designated GOES-13 and will complete checkout and be placed in on-orbit storage as a replacement for an older GOES satellite. GOES-N is the first in the next series of GOES satellites, N-P. The multi-mission GOES series N-P will be a vital contributor to weather, solar and space operations and science. The GOES N-P series will aid activities ranging from severe storm warnings to resource management and advances in science.

Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) are sponsored by the NASA?s Goddard Space Flight Center and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. GOES-N is targeted to launch May 4 onboard a Boeing expendable launch vehicle Delta IV (4,2) with a 3-burn second stage operation. Once in orbit GOES-N will be designated GOES-13 and will complete checkout and be placed in on-orbit storage as a replacement for an older GOES satellite. GOES-N is the first in the next series of GOES satellites, N-P. The multi-mission GOES series N-P will be a vital contributor to weather, solar and space operations and science. The GOES N-P series will aid activities ranging from severe storm warnings to resource management and advances in science.
