Universal Music Production: “Geology Spirals Instrumental” and “Collective Conscious Instrumental."

NASA uses satellites, ground measurements, and powerful computer models to track tiny particles floating in our air called aerosols. These small particles can travel thousands of miles, affecting the air we breathe and how far we can see, even far from where they originated. This visualization shows how these particles moved through Earth's atmosphere from August 1-September 14, 2024.
