Q. Recently, which space organization has launched 'Tanager-1 Satellite' to track methane emissions?
Answer:
NASA
Notes: NASA launched the Tanager-1 satellite to track methane emissions. The satellite was launched using a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California. It was developed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and other partners. The mission aims to detect major carbon dioxide and methane emissions. It focuses on monitoring greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. Tanager-1 uses advanced spectrometer technology to track emissions. It measures light wavelengths to identify specific gases by their infrared signatures. The satellite can monitor 130,000 square kilometres of emissions daily. Emission data will be publicly available to aid global reduction efforts.
