NASA LATEST VIDEO | SWOT | Earth Science Setallite Will help Communities Plans For A better Fututer
A new Earth science mission, led by NASA and the
French space agency Centre National d'Études
Spatiales (CNES), will help communities plan for a
better future by surveying the planet's salt and
freshwater bodies. The Surface Water and Ocean
Topography (SWOT) mission will measure the height
of water in lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and the oceans.
As climate change accelerates the water cycle, more
communities around the world will be inundated with
water while others won't have enough. SWOT data will
be used to improve flood forecasts and monitor
drought conditions, providing essential information to
water management agencies, civil engineers,
universities, the U.S. Department of Defense, disaster
preparedness agencies, and others who need to track
water in their local areas. In this video, examples of
how SWOT data will be used in these communities
are shared by a National Weather Service
representative in Oregon, an Alaska Department of
Transportation engineer, researchers from the
University of Oregon and University of North Carolina,
a NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientist working
with the Department of Defense, and a JPL scientist
working with the Louisiana Coastal Protection and
Restoration Agency.

SWOT is expected to launch from Vandenberg Space
Force Base in California in December 2022.
The mission is a collaboration between NASA and
CNES, with contributions from the Canadian Space
Agency and UK Space Agency. JPL, which is managed
for NASA by Caltech in Pasadena, California, leads the
U.S. component of the project.

Chasing Sprites And Electric Skies
Paul Smith is a night-sky fanatic and photographer.
His obsession is sprites: immense jolts of light that
flicker high above thunderstorms. Last October, he
guided NASA scientist Dr. Burcu Kosar through the
backroads of Oklahoma to catch one herself.
Although she'd studied sprites for more than 15 years,
she hadn't yet chased one.

NASA's SpaceX Crew-7 Flight Day 1 Highlightes
NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, ESA (European
Space Agency) astronaut Andreas Mogensen, JAXA
(Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut
Satoshi Furukawa, and Roscosmos cosmonaut
Konstantin Borisov launched aboard the SpaceX
Dragon Endurance spacecraft on Aug. 26 on a Falcon
9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at the agency's
Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The four crew
members are scheduled to arrive at the International
Space Station on Aug. 27 where they will conduct a
six-month mission living and working aboard the
microgravity laboratory to advance scientific
knowledge and demonstrate new technologies for
future human and robotic exploration missions. Such
research benefits people on Earth and lays the
groundwork for future human exploration through the
agency's Artemis missions, which will send astronauts
to the Moon to prepare for future expeditions to Mars.

How nasa Use Gravity and Radio Waves to study plantes And moon
The Deep Space Network, NASA's international
collection of giant radio antennas used to
communicate with spacecraft at the Moon and
beyond, helps scientists and engineers use gravity and
radio science experiments to learn more about our
planetary neighborhood.
After reaching a spacecraft reaches its destination, it
uses radio antennas to communicate with the Deep
Space Network, which in turn transmits radio signals
back to the spacecraft. Every spacecraft travels in a
predetermined path emitting radio signals as it orbits
around its target. Scientists and engineers can infer
the spacecraft's location and how fast it's going by
measuring changes in the spacecraft's radio signal
frequency. This is made possible by the Doppler
effect, the same phenomenon that causes a siren to
sound different as it travels towards and away from
you.
The Doppler phenomenon is observed here when the
spacecraft and the Deep Space Network antenna
move in relation to each other. Differences between
the frequency of radio signals sent by the spacecraft
ani+ hi4andi
as it orbits and signals received on Earth give us
details about the gravitational field of a planetary
body. For example, if the gravity is slightly stronger,
the spacecraft will accelerate slightly more. If gravity
is slightly weaker, the spacecraft will accelerate
slightly less. By developing a model of the planetary
body's gravitational field, which can be mapped as a
gravitational shape, scientists and researchers can
deduce information about its internal structure.
The Deep Space Network was developed by and is
managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)
in Southern California. The antennas of the Deep
Space Network are the indispensable link to robotic
explorers venturing beyond Earth. They provide the
crucial connection for commanding our spacecraft
and receiving never-before-seen images and scientific
information on Earth, propelling our understanding of
the universe, our solar system and ultimately, our
place within it.
JPL manages the Deep Space Network for the Space
Communications and Navigation (SCaN) Program,
based at NASA Headquarters within the Space
Operations Mission Directorate.
