NASA launches storm-tracking satellites

1

Storm-tracking satellites

NASA has launched two small satellites into the low Earth orbit, which will help better monitor hurricanes. The launch was a part of the TROPICS mission.

2

Launch

The two shoe-boxed-sized satellites, called CubeSats, lifted off from the launch complex in Mahia, New Zealand.

3

TROPICS mission

The TROPICS mission will ultimately form a constellation of four identical CubeSats which are designed to observe tropical cyclones.

4

Studying storms from space

These satellites will conduct observations every hour as opposed to current weather-tracking satellites, which monitor every six hours.

5

Track storms better

The second pair of CubeSats, which will complete the TROPICS satellite constellation, is expected to take off in about two weeks.
