"EarthCARE Satellite Launch to Enhance Climate Predictions"
TL;DR Summary
The British-built EarthCare satellite, set to launch next week, will enhance storm and climate predictions by measuring water content in clouds, rainfall and snowfall rates, and how clouds reflect and absorb sunlight. This data will improve weather forecasts and climate models, addressing a critical gap in understanding clouds' impact on Earth's temperature. The project, led by the European Space Agency with contributions from the UK and Japan, has taken over 30 years to develop.
