NASA’s PACE Climate Sat Ready to Fly

After nearly nine years of planning, preparation, and even once being slated for cancellation entirely, NASA’s Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) Earth-observation mission is set for launch. Initially conceived in 2015, PACE will finally reach orbit and begin its planned 3-10 year mission on a launch currently slated for February 6, 2024 at 1:33 AM.
