IMPACTS 2022: NASA Planes Fly into Snowstorms to Study Snowfall

The video discusses a scientific mission to study snowstorms across the Midwest and Eastern United States. Using two aircraft, the team aims to understand the formation and development of winter storms. The mission involves tracking snowstorms, collecting data at different altitudes, and analyzing ice particles. The findings will enhance meteorological models and improve snow prediction using satellite data. The multi-year campaign is the first comprehensive study of its kind in 30 years.
