Surveying Earth's Waters for a Sustainable Future 🌊

NASA and the French space agency CNES are embarking on an exciting Earth science mission that promises to shape a better future for our planet. The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, launching from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California in December 2022, will revolutionize how we understand and manage Earth's water resources. By measuring water heights in lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and oceans, SWOT data will empower communities worldwide to prepare for the challenges of a changing climate. Discover how this collaborative effort will improve flood forecasts, monitor drought conditions, and provide essential information to water management agencies, civil engineers, researchers, and more. 🌍💧 #EarthScience #WaterManagement #ClimateChange #SWOTMissionLaunch
