Special statement: In August 2025, much to my chagrin, NOAA shut down the two remaining APT satellites, NOAA-15 and NOAA-19.  There are no other APT satellites in the NOAA program.  I am currently using Meteor M2-3 and Meteor M2-4 weather satellites.  Please enjoy final images received from NOAA-15 below. So long NOAA sats!  Thanks for providing me with spectacular imagery for 21 years.
