Abstract
The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi-NPP) mission successfully completed ten years of operations since its launch in 2011, and NOAA-20 is in its fourth year of operations since 2017. These two satellites have revolutionized how remote sensing measurements are used in both weather prediction as well as in other applications that serve a variety of users. The third JPSS satellite (JPSS-2) is scheduled to be launched on November 1, 2022. Some major contributions of the mission over the past decade are highlighted here.
