An Ocean in Bloom

From the far reaches of space, NASA scientists aim to expand their knowledge of how our ocean, atmosphere, and ecosystems interact with one another through the launch of the PACE satellite. By identifying and examining harmful algal blooms around the world, PACE will inform communities ranging from local fishermen to large corporations on what is occurring in their backyard and beyond.

Keeping PACE with the Oceans

Join NASA’s chief scientist, Kate Calvin, as she explores the PACE mission in depth with oceanographers Ivona Cetinić and Bridget Seegers.

PACE Makes the Invisible Visible

PACE views our entire planet every day, returning data at a cadence that allows scientists to track and monitor the rapidly changing atmosphere and ocean, including cloud formation, aerosol movement, and differences in microscopic ocean life over time.

Ocean Color Countdown with PACE

The color of our oceans, lakes and rivers can tell us a lot about what's going on just beneath the surface. With the new hyperspectral capabilities of the PACE mission, we'll know more about the health of aquatic ecosystems and those impacts on human health and climate studies.
