== End of Mission in Real life == In April 2025, NOAA announced that they would suspend POES data - data from NOAA-15 and NOAA-19 - on June 16, 2025, and decommission NOAA-15 on August 12, 2025. However, on August 9 NOAA-19 encountered a battery failure and was decommissioned early on August 13. As a result, the decommissioning date of NOAA-15 was extended until the week of August 18. NOAA will not deorbit the satellite. Instead, it has been left in orbit and put into a safe electrical state, with the transmitters shut down. NOAA-15 was ultimately decommissioned on August 19, 2025, on at 20:37 UTC. [[Category:Radio Stations]][[Category:NOAA APT]][[Category:Satellites]][[Category:Modems]]
