Nasa has launched a CubeSat mission called PREFIRE to study the heat escaping from Earth, focusing on the Arctic and Antarctica. The mission aims to improve climate models and predictions related to sea levels, weather, and ice cover. The satellites, launched from New Zealand, will gather data on how heat is radiated into space and how cloud cover affects Earth's temperature.
