Malfunctioning Weather Satellite Can't Be Recovered, Air Force Finds
“At this time, there is no impact to the Department of Defense core weather sensing mission, and the DMSP constellation remains able to support mission requirements through resilient systems and processes,” the Air Force stated. The Flight 19 satellite will remain in space and will be able to gather data for as long as it remains pointed toward the Earth’s surface. Eventually, however, the accuracy of that data will degrade as it begins to point away from the Earth. At that point, the Air Force will continue tracking the satellite for situational awareness and collision avoidance purposes, the service said. Still unknown is whether the Air Force will opt to launch its completed DSMP Flight 20 satellite — which is currently being stored at manufacturer Lockheed Martin’s Sunnyvale, Calif.-facility — as a replacement capability.
