What does NASA do?

NASA is also studying this planet

What is water? So, what is water anyway? Where did Earth get its water from? Can we make more water if we need to?

How much water is on Earth’s surface?

Saltwater versus freshwater

Freshwater is a precious resource

Where is all the water on Earth?

The Big Picture

Earth’s Water Cycle

Precipitation What is precipitation? Why is precipitation important to life on Earth? Do we have enough precipitation on Earth? How can we know how much precipitation is falling?

“For Good Measure” Why do we need to measure precipitation from a satellite in orbit above Earth?

The satellite

How will you be involved? The way satellites “see” precipitation is different than how we collect it from rain gauges on the ground, or even than ground-based radar like you might see on the news. So, we have to compare the data from the satellite to data collected on the ground, to make sure that the instruments on the satellite and the computer programs that process the data are all working right. That’s where you come in!

Ground validation Scientists set up equipment to check against the satellite data, like these rain gauges in a field in North Carolina. This is called ground validation. With the rain gauge set up at your school, you and your classmates will become a part of the GPM ground validation team, sending us data that will be compared to satellite and radar data, as well as to other networks of rain gauges.

Collecting data From February 1 st through April 15 th, you will be collecting precipitation data and reporting it to GLOBE. But we don’t want the scientists to have all the fun, so there will also be opportunities to do your own analysis, using data from schools around the world as well as historic climate averages. Scientists working with the GPM mission will take your data and compare it to the satellite’s data, as well as to data from other networks of rain gauges and radars.

Earth Right Now We need to understand how Earth is changing – help NASA and GPM do just that!
