New Generation Of Weather & Climate Satellite About To Launch

October 16, 2011 by Bruce Sussman Leave a Comment

When I visit classes, kids always ask me: “How do you predict the weather?” For the 7day forecast, I say, it comes down to Super Computers and Satellites.

This quick video hits the highlights of how this works and how the latest generation of Satellite, called the NPP, or NPOESS Prepatory Project..will help improve my forecasts! Check it out…because the NPP launches October 27, 2011.
