From The Weather Center:

WeatherBrains 101: It has lasted for five decades and seen six US presidents, but late last month it was placed in a “graveyard” orbit. We’re talking about GOES-3 which has seen a long history of service in a geostationary orbit. GOES-3 is the topic of this episode of WeatherBrains 101.
