TL;DR Summary

NASA is set to launch the Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud and Ocean Ecosystem (PACE) satellite, equipped with advanced instruments to study microscopic particles in the atmosphere and waterways. The satellite's high-resolution imaging will provide unprecedented insights into the role of phytoplankton in oceans and the impact of aerosols on energy exchange. With a mission budget of $964 million, PACE aims to unravel complex climate mysteries and address critical questions about carbon distribution in the ocean, aerosol interactions, and the relationship between ocean life and the atmosphere. The data collected will be open and available to all scientists, advancing our understanding of ocean biology and its connection to climate change.
