Air Force Reserve Senior Airman Anne-Marie Mandrell, 6th Space Operations Squadron, reviews the day's coding instructions for a weather satellite April 3, 2014 at Schriever Air Force Base, Colo. The squadron's satellite vehicle operators assumed command of the nation's Defense Meteorological Satellite Program weather satellites from their National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration counterparts as the nation's newest weather satellite lifted into orbit aboard an Atlas V rocket at Vandenberg AFB, Calif. The squadron will oversee all weather satellite operations until April 8. Mandrell is a 6th SOPS satellite vehicle operator. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Stephen J. Collier)
