These environmental satellites affect our day-to-day including the accuracy of weather forecasts. I believe the GOES program must receive more government funding because GOES-19 is a single point of failure and there have been numerous funding concerns. This is a national security issue because lack of resources to mitigate emergency weather events can lead to increased loss of life.
