Our team attended the Mission Applications Early Adopter Showcase in D.C.! 🌍 Presenters highlighted how NASA data, including TEMPO, TROPICS, and the SPoRT Sea Surface Temperature Composite, enhances air quality and hurricane forecasting for informed Earth action!

Smoke fills the skies as fires rage in the Pacific Northwest. Tonight's view captured by GOES-18 in GeoColor.
