Description:"This report describes the NOAA/NESDIS Science Test portion only. In addition, the Imager and Sounder are covered, while the solar/space instruments are not. System performance and operational testing of the spacecraft and instrumentation was performed as part of the PLT. During the Science Test, GOES-14 was operated in a special test mode, where the default schedule involved routine emulation of either GOES-East or GOES-West operations. Numerous other scan schedules and sectors were constructed and used for both the Imager and the Sounder. GOES-14 was then placed into storage mode on 19 January 2010. Current plans call for GOES- 14 to remain in storage until after GOES-13 has become operational. At the time of the GOES- 14 Science Test, GOES-12 was operating in the GOES-East position, and GOES-11 was operating in the GOES-West position"--P. 15.
