  skos:definition """The Geostationary Meteorological Satellites (GMS) were Japan's contribution to the international Global Atmospheric Research Program (GARP).  The GMS series carried the Visible and Spin Scan Radiometer (VISSR).  The satellite was spin-stabilized with a despun earth-pointing antenna.  Launched by a Japan N-2 rocket in a August 1981, the satellite was positioned near 140 deg E and was designed to operate for 5 years.  This was a follow-on GMS type spacecraft launched and controlled by NASDA of Japan. The spacecraft was launched in August 1981, and turned off in September 1984.
