The MethaneSAT satellite looks at Earth and sees an invisible gas. The smart program learns to spot methane clouds even where humans missed them. It turns out many 'errors' the computer makes are real leaks that nobody noticed. Now we can find and fix gas leaks faster than ever before.
🎯 Over 20 years, methane traps 80 times more heat than carbon dioxide.
🎬 Someday, such orbital bloodhounds will sniff the atmospheres of exoplanets in search of life.
