NASA’s latest climate satellite, Pace, has been successfully launched by SpaceX on a $948 million mission. Orbiting 420 miles above Earth, Pace will observe oceans and atmosphere for at least three years. Unlike existing satellites, Pace’s 200-color vision will enhance insights into interactions between atmospheric aerosols, sea life, and pollutants. The mission aims to improve severe weather forecasts, monitor Earth’s changes amid rising temperatures, and predict harmful algae blooms. Despite challenges, including attempts to cancel the project under the Trump administration, Pace promises an unprecedented view of our planet, providing crucial data for climate research.
