Показать описание
Targeted to students and teachers in Grades 5-9 but accessible to anyone interested in the topic, this video introduces learners to the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate, called COSMIC. The latest COSMIC mission, known as COSMIC-2, uses a set of six satellites orbiting near Earth to measure how the atmosphere affects signals from global positioning system (GPS) satellites high above the surface. The observations collected offer scientists very accurate information to improve weather forecasts, help monitor a part of Earth's upper atmosphere called the ionosphere, and provide long-term records for understanding Earth's climate.
