Today kicks of
#NationalOceanMonth
and Ball Aerospace is proud to have a long heritage in satellites that help study Earth’s ocean, including lead roles on the Suomi NPP and NOAA-20 satellites.
Here are some amazing ocean images to celebrate with!

Images and data from the
#NOAA20
satellite on June 1 and 2, 2024, captured a wildfire burn scar and hotspots in California.
As of June 4, the fire is 90 percent contained after consuming over 14,000 acres, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

The browns of summer have emerged across California as mountain snow continues to dwindle, per
#NOAA20
VIIRS imagery. But water levels are doing great. Back-to-back wet winters translates to brimming reservoirs and a full Lake Tahoe for the first time in five years.

A fissure has opened up near Grindavik, Iceland, spewing lava onto the surface as a new volcanic eruption occurred earlier this morning.
The lava ejection from the eruption could be seen in high-resolution from NOAA-20.
