Jason-3 Satellite Prepared For Launch

Greenland and Antarctica are home to most of the world's glacial ice – including its only two ice sheets – making them areas of particular interest to scientists.

Jason-3 Animation

For NASA engineer Shannon Statham, building spacecraft is all about being creative.

For over 20 years NASA has been tracking the global surface topography of the ocean in order to understand the important role it plays in our daily lives. Climate change is causing our Ocean to war...
