NASA to Conduct Low-Altitude Flights Over Texas Farmland<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

A NASA Dynamic Aviation A200 aircraft will conduct low-flying research flights over farmland near Transit, Texas, from Thursday, Oct. 22, through Monday, Nov. 9. These flights will measure gaseous and particulate emissions from animal feeding operations.<\/p>\n

Agricultural emissions represent an important and understudied part of Earth\u2019s land and atmosphere systems. The FarmFlux mission will deploy more than a dozen sensors to measure ozone, methane, ammonia, particulates, and other pollutants rising from crop lands and livestock farms and their interaction with the Earth\u2019s atmosphere. The mission is jointly led by NASA\u2019s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland; Colorado State University; and Boston University.<\/p>\n

Additional low-altitude research flights with a NASA P-3 Orion aircraft are scheduled for the March to July 2027 growing season in the Midwest and California\u2019s Central Valley with a focus on cropland.<\/p>\n
