Talk:GEOS

---

This page's former discussion on GEOS was moved to the talk pages for the two articles spun off from the original one: Talk:GEOS (8-bit operating system) and Talk:GEOS (16-bit operating system).

Any ideas about this use of the name: "The Giotto mission spacecraft was derived from the GEOS research satellite built by British Aerospace..."

I realise this is incredibly late but for the record GEOS in this case refers to Geostationary Earth Orbit Satellite, two of these ESA satellites launched in the late 70's. ChiZeroOne (talk) 01:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite spells GOES, not GEOS. The two originals were called "Goes East" and "Goes West", if I recall. Perhaps calling them GEOS is a common mistake? I'll be removing this link, since a link at GOES already does exist. --Mdwyer 17:28, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

For some reason this has found it's way back onto the page, I'll remove. ChiZeroOne (talk) 01:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link repair - (You can help!)

Ran WikiCleaner to update bad links, missing pages, etc. MOS says to not pipe any add'l links in the description part, just the main word. Will work on correcting this on this page. Thanks! Funandtrvl (talk) 21:36, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
