JPSS-2, or Joint Polar Satellite System-2, is the second of the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s latest generation of U.S. polar-orbiting, non-geosynchronous, environmental satellites called the Joint Polar Satellite System. JPSS-2 was launched on 10 November 2022[1] and join NOAA-20 and Suomi NPP in the same orbit.[2] Circling the Earth from pole-to-pole, it will cross the equator about 14 times daily, providing full global coverage twice a day.[3]

JPSS-2 will provide operational continuity of satellite-based observations and products for NOAA Polar-Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES) and Suomi NPP satellite and ground systems.[3] The baseline plan for JPSS Ground System will be sustained to support JPSS-2, similar to NOAA-20. The JPSS-2 spacecraft will host the following instruments: 1) VIIRS, 2) CrIS, 3) ATMS, and 4) OMPS. It was at one time intended to carry the Radiation Budget Instrument (RBI) but NASA cancelled that project in 2018.[4]

NOAA sẽ tiên đoán đường đi của bão (Hurricane) chính xác hơn với hai vệ tinh JPSS-2 and JPSS-1

Mỗi vệ tinh sẽ bay qua đường xích đạo 14 lần mỗi ngày và cung cấp dữ kiện thời tiết toàn cầu hai lần mỗi ngày
