Recently, a groundbreaking satellite known as the Eye in the Sky has been launched to provide crucial data on methane, a potent greenhouse gas contributing to global warming. This satellite, funded by notable figures like Jeff Bezos and other donors, is a project of the nonprofit Environmental Defense Fund.
The Methane sat is equipped to orbit the Earth every 95 minutes, offering detailed insights into methane emissions associated with natural gas production. Methane, with over 80 times the heat-trapping power of carbon dioxide, poses a significant threat to the environment.
