NASA's PACE satellite mission aims to observe plankton, aerosol, cloud, and ocean ecosystems in greater detail than ever before.

The satellite is equipped with advanced polarimeters that can observe specific characteristics of particles in the atmosphere.

NASA has successfully launched its PACE satellite that will study how plankton and aerosol particles are impacted by global warming.

The PACE satellite will use a spectrometer and polarimeters to measure light intensity, polarization of sunlight, and the size and composition of particles.

NASA's PACE satellite is set to launch on Feb. 6 to track phytoplankton blooms and study their impact on the environment.

Phytoplankton blooms can have both beneficial and detrimental effects, absorbing carbon from the atmosphere while also producing toxins that can harm aquatic life and humans.
