Colorado State provides a website that serves near-realtime processed data from various weather satellites: http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu
they offer a tool called Slider that lets users create overlays of various satellite image streams. You can access imagery from GOES-East, GOES-West, Humawari-8, and JPSS.
Here is a loop of Goes-17 ("goes west") Full Disk Geocolor images captured every 15 minutes for a full 24 hours, starting 9:00 PM PST 2018-10-16 to 10:00 PM PST 2018-10-17: https://col.st/sNSct
Note that GOES East geocolor images seem to render a synthetic city lights texture + live cloud coverage for night-time images. Goes West is just dark.
NOAA publishes high resolution Goes-16 ("goes east") images every 15 minutes, and seems to lag about 30-60 minutes behind the actual time of capture by the satellite. Here's the latest: https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/index.php
