If you had asked me what “citizen science” was before this internship
with the NASA SEES ( STEM Enhancement in Earth Science ) Earth System
Explorers, I most likely would have conjured a description that
involved studying the human body. Now, however, I feel confident in
saying that citizen science is a dynamic, extraordinary meaningful
process by which everyday citizens contribute to real-world scientific
research. This internship allowed me to take on the roles of both a
citizen scientist and a researcher, deeply engaging with my local
community and environment while ...

Brad Hegyi is a research scientist for the NASA Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) project team at Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, USA. Brad develops metrics and statistics for POWER from model estimates of future climate to help support planning for future energy use by heating and cooling systems in buildings. Brad also helps create interactive data products to better visualize changes occurring in the climate data.
The energy that comes from the Sun is the basic source of energy for everything on Earth. Solar energy drives Earth’s weather and ...

The Sun drives many processes in Earth’s atmosphere. As the Sun rises and sets, it warms the Earth’s surface at different intensities. These changes in heat lead to changes in the clouds, especially the types of clouds. To study these changes, we need observations at different times over the course of hours, days, weeks, months, and years from around the globe. It can be tricky to capture the extent of these interactions with satellites alone, which is why we need observations from your perspective on the ground as part of the GLOBE Eclipse Challenge: Clouds and Our ...
