How NASA monitors the hidden, daily shifts of our planet's oceans and atmosphere

The PACE satellite mission observes Earth daily, capturing data on microscopic ocean life, cloud patterns, and aerosol movement. This video explains how the mission provides a continuous view of our changing world, offering scientists a vital perspective on the interconnected systems that define our environment.

The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud and ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission functions as a global monitor, tracking the rapid evolution of Earth's atmosphere and oceans. By observing the entire planet every day, PACE allows researchers to analyze how microscopic marine life, cloud formations, and aerosol particles shift over time.

This mission is a collaborative effort involving scientists from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and Morgan State University. By providing data at a high cadence, PACE helps experts visualize and understand the complex, invisible processes that drive environmental change across the globe.
