The Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has a role to expand human knowledge of the Earth, its environment, to solar system, and the universe. As such, the Center has been at the forefront of space research and exploration through a myriad of spacecrafts, both low Earth orbiting (LEO) and geosynchronous Earth orbiting (GEO) vehicles. A number of these satellites are listed showing the relevant battery parameters associated with each spacecraft. All the spacecrafts listed have nickel-cadmium batteries. All the cells used in these batteries are manufactured by Gates Aerospace Batteries (GAB) in Gainesville, Florida. A survey of the batteries used in the LEO and GEO missions at the Goddard Space Flight Center is described. For each spacecraft, a tentative launch date is given, along with relevant battery parameters including battery size and description, depth-of-discharge, predicted mission temperature, and life requirement
