NASA has a way to track CO2 emissions from space, allowing for more accurate measuring of changes in sources of carbon dioxide.

that work hand-in-hand together. These missions, called Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 and 3, help quantify CO2 emissions.

Additionally, NASA uses data gathered by the OCO-3 mission, which was created using spare components from the other mission. It has been a component of the ISS since 2019, where it is able to map regions using multiple sweeping observations. This allows the researchers to create detailed mini maps of the area, which is great for tracking CO2 emissions precisely.
