After GOES-U launches and begins its orbit, it will change designations to GOES-19 and undergo a crosscheck of all of its systems, instruments and data. After it's deemed ready to operate, which if all goes well could be as early as April 2025, it will take the place of GOES-R, now known as GOES-East, and begin watching over a big portion of the Western Hemisphere with its new and improved changes.
