We use the GOES satellites and their data a lot! They provided some great data to help us forecast space weather during this last campaign. We were able to confirm that we saw an x-ray flare from the sun with our balloons due to GOES. We were able to see waves and their associated plasma parameters which may be the cause for some of our observed precipitation, and the list goes on. This is great news that we'll be getting a new GOES satellite in a few years!
The Balloon Array for Radiation belt Relativistic Electron Losses is a NASA sponsored, multiple-balloon investigation that studies Earth's radiation belts.
