As climate change continues to threaten the future of our planet, scientists are constantly conducting new studies. A small satellite that NASA sent into space yesterday is one of them. Satellite, A principle about climate change will sign.

Rocket Lab’s Electron rocket was launched in the US yesterday.DELIVERYAs part of the mission called ” it sent a satellite the size of a shoebox into space. As part of the PREFIRE mission, two satellites will explore the Earth’s poles.

They will measure the heat “escaping” from the poles.

As part of the mission, these satellites were sent from the poles of the Earth. heat released directly from orbit into space they will measure. This will be something that is happening for the first time. Experts believe the measurements will be very useful in predicting climate change. Let’s note that the second satellite will be launched into space at a later, yet unannounced time.

One of the satellites, which will be at an altitude of about 525 kilometers, will be over the North Pole and the other over Antarctica. By infrared measurementBy doing r they will see how much heat is lost from the poles. NASA researcher Karen St. Germain said:“It will improve my ability to model what’s happening in the climate and at the poles, providing information we’ve never had before.” he said.

It should be noted that these measurements are very important. The poles can directly influence the planet’s temperature. They also help balance the extreme heat in tropical areas. NASA also wants to see the effects of climate changes with PREFIRE.

Experts within the scope of the investigation clouds, moisture and melting ice reduce temperature loss at the poles They will try to understand what impact this has. And also What will sea level rise look like in the future? It will also help them with simulation. Until now, models on this topic have been based on predictions rather than actual observations.
