To do something for the first time is great, but to be able to do it again and innovate is greater. We take pride in the launch of #Maya2🇵🇭 , the successor to #Maya1🇵🇭 and the Philippines' latest milestone in creating value in space for and from Filipinos and for the world.

[STAMINA4Space @STAMINA4Space]

Godspeed #Maya2🇵🇭 #Tsuru🇯🇵 and #GuaraniSat1🇵🇾!!! @NASA is live now to show the S.S. Katherine Johnson take off and head to the @Space_Station for the @northropgrumman CRS-15 mission which also carries the #BIRDS4 CubeSats.

Has the water been murky in your area? Using Sentinel-2 optical satellite data, our researchers were able to take a look at the turbidity of Ipo Dam after Typhoon #UlyssesPH. What was observed was a five- to tenfold increase in water turbidity.
