MOPITT turned 25!🥳

Since 1999, this Canadian instrument aboard NASA’s Terra satellite has been scanning Earth’s atmosphere, tracking pollution & informing climate policies. Cheers to 25 years of impact and counting!

Here's to 25 Terra-ific years! 🥂

#OTD in 1999, Terra, the flagship satellite of the @NASAEarth Observing System, was launched into space. It has been continuously collecting data ever since to help us understand how Earth is changing over time.

Happy launchiversary Terra!!

Satellite trading cards just dropped! 🛰️

#DYK Terra and Aqua are named after the words for Earth and water in Latin, respectively? 🌎💧

Members of @NASA's Earth Science Mission Operations (ESMO) Project communicate with the Aqua satellite every time it orbits the Earth — about every 99 minutes. Find out why, and what ESMO team members do when there's an anomaly, at https://t.co/YCeDjiBN3C

Happy Birthday🎉Aqua!

Since 2002, @NASA’s Aqua satellite has orbited the Earth more than 100,000 times and produced one of the longest near-continuous records of Earth observation data ever assembled. Learn about this satellites's remarkable story at: https://t.co/71ZMzelyxX

Here it is: humanity’s final look at @NASAWebb as it heads into deep space to answer our biggest questions. Alone in the vastness of space, Webb will soon begin an approximately two-week process to deploy its antennas, mirrors, and sunshield. #UnfoldTheUniverse

When the Terra satellite passed over the coast of Australia on Dec. 16th, it measured smoke from the recent fires in the region. @NASA’s Disasters Program worked to create the first interactive 3D visualization of this type of fire plume-height data. https://t.co/1b6zvUB0tZ
