Expect actionable insights, cutting-edge discussions, and invaluable networking with industry leaders.   For the first time, the event spans three focused days:   🔹 Day 1: Existing Markets – Explore advancements in #SatelliteApplications, Refuelling, Manufacturing, and more. 🔹 Day 2: Future Markets – A deep dive into next-gen technologies, from #AI to #QuantumSensors and beyond. 🔹 Day 3: Security – Tackling #Cybersecurity, resilience, and the future of space defence.   Join me February 25th - 27th at #SPACEtalks and be part of the conversation shaping the future of space innovation. Looking forward to connecting!   https://lnkd.in/gve9P8Gq   #SPACEtalks2025 #SpaceTech #Innovation #FutureOfSpace #Technology #SpaceAI #Robotics #Security #Defence #AI

Landfills are a major source of methane emissions — and emerging monitoring technologies offer new opportunities to understand these dynamic, and often persistent, emissions. 👀 🛰️ Next week, Carbon Mapper’s waste lead, Dr. Tia Scarpelli will join other experts at a webinar hosted by the Air & Waste Management Association to discuss recent advances in methane emissions measurements and analysis — including ways remote sensing can help detect and quantify emissions at individual facilities. We’re excited to contribute to this important conversation. For more info on the webinar and registration fees, visit the Air & Waste Management Association page. ➡️ Learn more about how methane emissions data from Carbon Mapper can be used to support waste mitigation efforts: https://lnkd.in/gxY6rd6A #Methane #Landfills #WasteData

As we dig into our recently released Tanager-1 data, we’re seeing lots of interesting emissions across global waste sites. 🛰️ An example from a landfill in Algeria reinforces Carbon Mapper research that revealed how landfill methane sources are often more persistent than oil and gas emissions. Although landfills are a long-term methane challenge, accessible and actionable data can drive solutions! 📉 By pinpointing sources of emissions and making the data publicly available, Carbon Mapper can help decision-makers take action to target large emissions at landfills. We continue to work with people and groups in the waste sector to inform methane mitigation efforts with transparent, granular data. Let us know if you’re interested in partnering! 🤝 Planet #MethaneData #WasteEmissions #Landfill

More Tanager-1 data = more transparency and insights on the sources of global methane super-emitters! 🎉 Observations in the oil and gas sector can help support rapid leak detection and repair, assess trends, and verify reductions for methane emissions. We’re excited to now provide methane and carbon dioxide data from Planet's Tanager-1 on an ongoing basis. 🛰️ You can expect to see more of this data on our public portal as soon as 30 days after observation. #CutMethane #ClimateData #MethaneData

📣 Big news: Another 300+ plumes from Tanager-1 were just published to our data portal! 🎉 🛰️ The new satellite data reveals methane super-emitters across 25 countries—showcasing the prevalence of super-emitters across various sectors from fossil fuel sources to solid waste facilities. 📣 We’re also beginning to routinely publish data from Planet's Tanager-1 satellite on our portal. While the satellite is still undergoing commissioning, methane and carbon dioxide data from Tanager-1 will now be available on an ongoing basis, as soon as 30 days after observation. 📊 Explore our data portal to get insights on emitting sources including oil and gas methane sources from the Permian Basin, coal emissions in China, and plumes from landfills and compost facilities in Australia. Check out the new Tanager-1 data now: https://lnkd.in/gxdHkE7T 💡Data portal tip: You can use filters to see plumes from just Tanager-1. Select “Show filters” at the top left of the portal — then select “Instrument” > “Planet Tanager,” and close filters to view results. #MethaneData #CutMethane #ClimateData

Leveraging different methane monitoring technologies is helping us to understand the true impact of major methane emissions events that occur around the world. 🛰️ ✈️ A new report by the International Methane Emissions Observatory - IMEO analyzed multiple sources of data to provide more insights around the #NordStream leak and its impacts on the climate. 🌎 As part of the remote sensing ecosystem, we detect and quantify methane super-emitters and pinpoint their sources to bring more transparency and drive action!

Methane—a potent greenhouse gas—is a major driver of global warming, largely fueled by human activities like oil and gas production, waste management, and agriculture. But in many areas, just a handful of facilities are responsible for a significant 20-60% of emissions. By focusing on these super-emitters, we can unlock fast, effective solutions to curb methane and slow global warming. 🌡️ 📖 Read more about these efforts from two satellites providing “eyes in the sky” to detect and quantify global hot spots and super-emitters: https://lnkd.in/g_mH8n7S MethaneSAT Planet #CutMethane #MethaneMonitoring #SatelliteData

Making methane and carbon dioxide emissions data accessible and actionable globally is driving increasing transparency! Proud to partner with Planet to help decision makers take climate action.

My heart goes out to the many JPL friends, colleagues, and community members in the Altadena area affected by the Eaton Fire this week. If you are interested in helping from afar, below is a list of active GoFundMe pages for families in need after the Eaton Fire.

Our thoughts are with our colleagues, team members, partners and community members in the LA area during these tragic and destructive wildfires.    Our office in Pasadena remains closed. However, to our knowledge, it has not been impacted beyond this. We know many have not been so fortunate. Please keep our community in mind and help support where you can. It's incredible to see the resilience of this community and the ways people have already come together.   For those looking to help fire victims, NBC News compiled and vetted some great resources you can contribute to: https://lnkd.in/eDabwgcA
