NASA dixit:
“The Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 is NASA\’s first spacecraft dedicated to studying carbon dioxide in Earth\’s atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the main human-produced driver of climate change. The Observatory will collect hundreds of thousands of measurements each day, providing a global description of the atmospheric carbon dioxide distribution with unprecedented coverage and resolution. OCO-2 will provide new insights into the sources emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and the processes at Earth\’s surface that absorb this gas.”
