We develop novel tools and techniques for understanding how our planet works -- for the benefit of humanity and for insights we need to explore other moons and planets. NASA's Earth Science Division operates more than 20 satellites in orbit, sponsors hundreds of research programs and studies, and funds opportunities to put data to use for societal needs. We develop new ways to observe the oceans, land cover, ice, atmosphere, and life, and we measure how changes in one drive changes in others over the short and long term. While listening to and collaborating with industry leaders, international partners, academic institutions, and other users of our data, we drive innovations and deliver science to help inform decisions that benefit the nation and the world.</p> <div id="" class="nasa-gb-align-center nasa-button-link padding-y-1 padding-x-0 hds-module wp-block-nasa-blocks-related-link"> <a href="https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science/earth-science-at-work/" target="_self" class="button-primary button-primary-md link-external-false" aria-label="Learn how NASA Earth Science helps Americans respond to challenges."> <span class="line-height-alt-1">Learn how NASA Earth Science helps Americans respond to challenges.</span> <svg viewBox="0 0 32 32" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><circle class="button-primary-circle" cx="16" cy="16" r="16"></circle><path d="M8 16.956h12.604l-3.844 4.106 1.252 1.338L24 16l-5.988-6.4-1.252 1.338 3.844 4.106H8v1.912z" class="color-spacesuit-white"></path></svg> </a> </div> <div id="" class="hds-card-grid padding-top-7 padding-bottom-3 padding-x-0 hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-card-grid"> <div class="hds-card-grid-header grid-container grid-container-block"> <div class="grid-row flex-align-start margin-bottom-5"> <div class="desktop:grid-col-8 margin-bottom-2 desktop:margin-bottom-0"> <div class="margin-bottom-1"> <h2 class="section-heading-sm line-height-sm">Recent News and Articles</h2> </div> </div> <div class="desktop:grid-col display-flex flex-align-center desktop:flex-justify-end"> <a href="https://science.nasa.gov/earth/recent-news/" target="_self" class="button-primary button-primary link-external-false"> <span class="line-height-alt-1 " > More News and Articles </span> <svg viewBox="0 0 32 32" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><circle class="button-primary-circle" cx="16" cy="16" r="16"></circle><path d="M8 16.956h12.604l-3.844 4.106 1.252 1.338L24 16l-5.988-6.4-1.252 1.338 3.844 4.106H8v1.912z" class="color-spacesuit-white"></path></svg> </a> </div> </div> <div class="grid-row grid-gap-2"></div> </div> <div class="hds-card-grid-cards grid-container grid-container-block"> <div class="hds-cards-included grid-row"> <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/earth/nasa-takes-to-the-air-to-study-wildflowers/" class="hds-card-article-default hds-card-article hds-card hds-card-content color-carbon-black display-flex flex-column margin-bottom-5 mobile:grid-col-12 tablet:grid-col-6 desktop:grid-col-3 margin-bottom-6"><div class="hds-card-inner"><div class="hds-card-thumbnail hds-card-thumbnail-hover-grow margin-bottom-2"><figure class="hds-media-background "><img loading="lazy" alt="" style="transform: scale(1);
