NOAA has begun the formulation of next generation of Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites following the highly successful JPSS mission under the Near Earth Orbit Network (NEON) Program. The future LEO missions are planned to be acquired in series, where each series addresses specific observational needs and capabilities necessary to support NOAA’s primary essential capabilities. Future missions are expected to have improved observational capabilities and offer diversity and agility in meeting evolving user needs. NEON strategy not only includes missions that will be acquired by NOAA but also partnerships with other national and international agencies. This session will include brief presentations on LEO from NOAA leadership followed by a townhall to solicit community feedback and provide responses to queries.
