As technology advances, tiny satellites no bigger than a loaf of bread have advanced from just proving they work to being big contributors in answering science questions.

New study changes what we know about the pre-industrial atmosphere – and how we predict future climate change.
While planes still emit too much carbon, they may also help the climate by ensuring clouds bounce more sunlight back into space.
While translation technology has improved dramatically, there are some significant hurdles.
They may be stunning, but nacreous clouds are also contributing to the breakdown of the Earth’s ozone layer.
Big data is about processing large amounts of data. It is often associated with multiplicities of data. But the ability to generate data outpaces the ability to store it.
The amount of global warming we can expect in the future has been a tough question to pin down. A new study that I led with colleagues in France has enabled us to come up with a more accurate analysis…
Clouds caused by air pollution have been overestimated in their ability to to reflect sunlight back into space, thus helping…
Cloud formation is not affected by organic particles attached to water droplets, researchers at the Georgia Institute of…
Cloud height has declined by 30-40 meters from 2000 to 2010. The analysis was based on the first 10 years of data collected…
Physicists at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research) created something of an online kerfuffle last month when they sought to improve our understanding of cosmic rays and clouds. While their…
Holes created by planes flying through clouds near airports may cause a slight increase in rain or snowfall in the local area, a new study has found. Scientists who studied the effect have likened it to…
