Satellites play a crucial role in monitoring the Earth’s surface, providing valuable insights into the effects of human activity, the health of vegetation, forest biomass, and animal migration patterns. As human activities, such as increased production of food, fuel, and medicine, shape the environment to meet the needs of a growing population, they also contribute to climate change, habitat disruption, and biodiversity loss. Satellite data is essential for observing and tracking these environmental changes over time, helping researchers understand and address the impacts of human activity on the planet.
