NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory will have a little more on its plate come June 19, the day Aura is scheduled to be launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base to study the atmosphere and the ozone layer.
Aura will be used to help answer key scientific questions, including whether the Earth’s ozone layer is recovering. Aura also is expected to help scientists understand how atmospheric composition responds to Earth’s changing climate.
