NASA decorates the sky with ICSAT-2!


As it is, we are dazzled and shine in the sky this time with a moon to track the changing glaciers on Earth. On the dawn of Saturday (September 15, 2019),
the Delta II rocket was launched towards the skies of California with its final mission to deliver NASA's ISSAT-2 satellite, which will cover climate changes and monitor changing ice levels on the Earth's surface.
 

"The moon is a very important and important part of the history of space," said Scott Messer, director of NASA's ULA program at the conference on Wednesday.

"With this mission, humanity continues to explore the remote polar regions of our planet and enhances our understanding of how the changes in the Earth's ice cover will affect the poles in particular, and of life in general, now and in the future," said Thomas Zumbochin, associate director of NASA's Scientific Mission Directorate. .
 

How did the Delta-2 flight become?

The rocket took off from ICESAT-2 at the Vandenberg Air Force Base and the stations in Svalbard, Norway, received signals from the spacecraft about 75 minutes after launch. They perform better than expected, and have dart from pole to pole.
 

How does IceSat-2 work?

(ATLAS) and Atlas will be activated approximately two weeks after the mission's mission team has completed the initial test of the moon.

ICSAT-2 will then begin to work on its target and collect enough data to estimate the annual change as the bipolar sheets rise from the surface by 4 millimeters.

"Although the launch was incredibly exciting, the most important part for us scientists is that the moon sends its first data, and we are already looking forward to making this data available to the community," said Marcos, the ISSAT-2 project coordinator at the Goddard Aviation Center. As soon as possible, so that we can begin to explore what the ISS-2 can tell us about our complex planet. "
 

How important is this data in the ISSAT-2 mission?

The high accuracy of the data will document changes in the polar ice caps. Forecasts of rising sea level increase the melting of ice sheets in the poles, help scientists understand mechanisms that lead to ice decrease, and understand that ice loss affects oceans and the atmosphere.

This was not NASA's first task, not even the last one, but would the Moon succeed in its mission as a full farmer, and would it be the desired savior of the polarization of the polar bears, or would it follow its predecessor?
