NASA Earth Science Division

The NASA Earth Science Division is a branch of NASA focused on studying our planet's systems and environment. It uses satellites, aircraft, and ground-based research to gather data about the atmosphere, oceans, land, and ice. This information helps scientists understand climate change, weather patterns, natural disasters, and how human activities impact the Earth. By analyzing this data, the division aims to improve forecasting and promote better stewardship of the planet, supporting decision-making for environmental protection and disaster response efforts. Ultimately, their work enhances our understanding of Earth and its complex systems.
