"NASA's PACE Mission: Exploring Earth's Oceans from Space"

NASA and SpaceX are set to launch the PACE mission, aimed at examining Earth's oceans, using a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The mission, scheduled for 1:33 a.m. ET on Tuesday, will mark the first U.S. government polar orbit launch from Cape Canaveral in over 60 years. The spacecraft, named PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem), is designed to observe ocean ecosystems and air quality, with NASA's head of science emphasizing its importance in understanding the health of oceans and air. The launch can be watched on NASA's YouTube channel or by registering as a virtual guest for updates and mission-specific information.
