The first satellite developed by an environmental non-profit will see methane emissions others can’t, paving the way for heightened accountability and faster reductions

On March 4, 2024, MethaneSAT effectively detached from the SpaceX Transporter-10 rocket that carried the emissions-monitor into space. The groundbreaking satellite is designed to help protect the Earth’s climate by accelerating reductions of a powerful greenhouse pollutant, focusing first on oil and gas operations, a major source of methane.

Data will be available for download in the Google Earth Engine database, followed by satellite data after launch

MethaneSAT ... (January 2024, Developing story) .... Goal, launch "the most advanced methane-tracking satellite in space, measuring methane emissions virtually anywhere on Earth. Cutting methane emissions from the oil and gas is the single fastest, most impactful thing we can do to slow the rate of warming today"
