DINOv3, developed by @AIatMeta with support from @WorldResources is setting a new standard for environmental monitoring. This is how we use it to map the height of individual trees globally — faster & more accurately than ever before: 🔗 bit.ly/4oyZqZs @BezosEarthFund

NISAR is one big step closer to beginning its mission to study Earth’s changing surfaces 🌏 Today, the satellite successfully unfurled its 39-foot-wide (12-meter-wide) antenna reflector. It’s the largest reflector NASA has ever deployed in space! go.nasa.gov/41Iu20T

The NISAR satellite’s L-band radar penetrates deep into forest canopies, providing insights into forest structure!

Our Earth science fleet just got... NISAR. Shortly after launch on an @ISRO rocket, the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar spacecraft successfully separated from its ride to orbit. We'd say this satellite is more than nice, it's great. 😎 Find out why at…
