On Dec 22, China became the third country in the world – after Japan and the US – to have a carbon dioxide (CO2) monitoring satellite. Named TanSat, as “tan” is the Chinese word for carbon, the satellite moves around Earth at about 700 kilometers above the ground. There, it can “see” clearly how much CO2 there is in the air and how it is moving.
How is TanSat able to do that? When sunlight travels through the air, the CO2 molecules (分子)
take in different colors from the light. The satellite then looks at these colors to find out how much CO2 there is in the air.
“The TanSat has very good ‘vision (视力)’, and it can tell changes in CO2 as small as 1 percent,” said Yin Zengshan, one of the satellite’s designers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, according to Xinhua News Agency.
But there is a question. When CO2 can already be measured from ground stations, why do we need a satellite that does the same thing?
The truth is that they don’t do exactly the same thing. According to Zhang Peng, vice director of the National Satellite Meteorological Center, the data (数据) from ground stations is limited and it does not cover the ocean area, which takes up more than 70 percent of Earth’s surface.
