NASA Probes Arctic Sea Ice From Air and Space
✦AI Summary
NASA researchers are testing new spacecraft sensors in the Canadian Arctic to better measure the thickness and decline of sea ice. By combining airborne data with satellite observations, scientists aim to improve climate models and support Arctic navigation.
This month, engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California are testing a spacecraft sensor that will help measure how quickly Arctic sea ice is disappearing. And while that instrument won't launch for another year, scientists started preparing for its use during a recent field campaign in the Canadian wilderness.
