NASA - Live from our Headquarters in Washington, we’re hosting a media briefing ahead of Earth Day 2024 to share information about NASA's climate research. We'll discuss new airborne science flights, our latest Earth science strategy, and to share data from our newest Earth-observing satellite, PACE, which stands for Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, and Ocean Ecosystem.

KHOU11 - Though every day is Earth Day at NASA, this year they are focusing on oceans and telling us about the newest Pace satellite.
First Coast News - NASA is studying our oceans through their newest satellite called PACE, which stands for Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud and ocean Ecosystem.
Since launching in February, it’s been tracking aerosols.
"The reason for that is multiple issues that impact the climate, impacts air quality, but also aerosol particles are the nuclei for forming clouds," said Dr. Amir Ibrahim, a PACE Ocean Scientist.

WBAY - GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - Monday marks the annual observance of Earth Day, a day dedicated to our big blue marble was inspired in part by Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson back in 1969 and first observed on April 22, 1970.
NASA is beginning to bring in information from this satellite, PACE, which was launched just two months ago. PACE stands for Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, and Ocean Ecosystem and it was designed to detect particles in the ocean and air to help understand climate change.
NASA - In anticipation of Earth Day, NASA invites media to a briefing at the agency’s headquarters on Friday, April 19, at 11 a.m. EDT. The event will share updates on NASA’s climate science and early data from the agency’s ocean-watching PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) mission, as well as reveal upcoming Earth airborne missions.
NASA - The PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) mission has delivered its first operational data back to researchers, a feat made possible in part by innovative, data-storing technology from NASA’s Near Space Network, which introduced two key enhancements for PACE and other upcoming science missions.
USA Today - Imagine coloring a picture with 200 crayons instead of eight.That’s the difference in light and color that a new satellite bound for orbit will bring to the study of microscopic particles in our atmosphere and waterways, said Jeremy Werdell, a project scientist with NASA.
