EO Kids is searching for small specks of air pollutants from space. In this issue, discover how satellites sense air quality from high above the ground. You can also create your very own air quality sensor with our “DIY Science” activity.
At EO Kids we are committed to making Earth science fun and engaging. Come explore Earth with us.
Join Autumn Burdick, EO Kids writer, as she tests her air quality around her home.
