Source: NASA Science

Over the next few years, hundreds of scientists will be flying a fleet of research planes loaded with instruments to study fire weather, glaciers, landslides, air quality, and emissions from farms. The EVS-4 (Earth Ventures Suborbital-4) mission consists of a series of six airborne campaigns addressing these urgent science topics.

These campaigns are designed to fill the gap between satellite observations from space, and ground-level measurements.

The EVS-4 missions: FARMFLUX | FORTE | HAMAQ | INSPYRE | LACCE | SNOW4FLOW
