Weather satellites News

NASA researchers recently developed a model that analyzes various weather factors that lead to the formation and spread of fires. It is called the Global Fire Weather Database (GFWED).

In the last 650,000 years, the Earth has seen seven glacial events, with the last Ice Age occurring about 7,000 years ago, leading to the beginning of the modern climate era. Since then, humans have played a significant role in changes in our climate.

As the world's scientists work on the global climate they will be losing their most important tool; weather satellites. The U.S. satellites that monitor climate change are beginning to fail due to age.
