NASA launched a GOES-7 weather satellite aboard a Delta rocket. The satellite was first placed into an elliptical orbit. Ground command was expected to arrest the satellite in a stationary orbit 22,400 miles above the Atlantic Ocean by firing a booster rocket. GOES-7 joined the already orbiting GOES-6 weather satellite to provide weather information and patterns in an area stretching from the eastern Atlantic to the mid-Pacific Ocean.
