"Satellite's Unprecedented Thermal Images Reveal Earth's Heat Variations"
SatVu's HotSat-1 satellite, known as the "world's thermometer," has captured the first images of heat variations across Earth. The thermal imaging satellite, launched in June, aims to provide valuable insights into economic activity and energy efficiency. It monitors infrared to understand heat production and offers a resolution of 10 meters, allowing for detailed temperature differences in cities like Las Vegas and Chicago. The high-resolution images could aid firefighters in monitoring wildfires and help city planners make infrastructure more energy-efficient. SatVu plans to launch eight satellites in total.
