VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. | NASA satellite launched to measure Earth's ice changes
New Post has been published on https://www.stl.news/vandenberg-air-force-base-calif-nasa-satellite-launched-to-measure-earths-ice-changes/170517/ VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. | NASA satellite launched to measure Earth’s ice changes VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE , Calif . — A NASA satellite designed to precisely measure changes in Earths ice sheets, glaciers, sea ice and vegetation has been launched from California. A Delta 2 rocket carrying ICESat -2 lifted off from Vandenberg Air Force Base at 6:02 a.m. Saturday and headed over the Pacific toward polar orbit. NASA Earth Science Division director Michael Freilich says that the mission in particular will advance knowledge of how the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica contribute to sea level rise. ICESat-2 carries a single instrument, a laser altimeter that measures height by determining how long it takes photons to travel from the spacecraft to Earth and back. The mission is a successor to the original ICESat that operated from 2003 to 2009. Measurements continued since then with airborne instruments in NASA’s Operation IceBridge. By Associated Press
We were introduced to the #thermalvacuumchamber building @nasagoddard where researchers and engineers are testing the functionality and hardware of #icesat which extensively monitor #seaice and global #icemelt as well as #sealevel among other data points when it launches later this Fall. #stateofnasa #nasasocial (at NASA Goddard)

SHIT BOI I DIE LOOK AT EM i needed to make my ‘76 rp characters as references (or at least a loose one) for heights obvs these are the gjinkas, not the real sats lmaooooo but in order: chipsat, icesat, lightsail (two diff designs i really liked for her,) juno (and what her damage looks like beyond her hair,) spirit, and messenger next up are the nanos and humans :3c height chart by parallaxabomination !
