Suomi NPP

Suomi NPP (National Polar-orbiting Partnership) is a satellite launched by NASA and NOAA that continuously monitors Earth's environment. It captures detailed images and data about weather, climate, land, and oceans from space. Its observations help improve weather forecasts, track environmental changes, and support disaster response. Positioned in polar orbit, it circles the planet from pole to pole, providing near real-time information. Suomi NPP acts as a bridge between weather and climate monitoring satellites, enhancing our understanding of Earth's systems and aiding in decision-making for climate action and safety.
