The science reference might be hard to spot in this Valentine if you’re not sure what you’re looking for. In fact, it references NOAA’s Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites, more commonly known as GOES satellites. These satellites monitor the entire Western Hemisphere and identify and track severe weather, snow storms, tropical cyclones, planes, and even hikers, among others.

NOAA owns four GOES satellites. Find the Valentine on Twitter here.
