The Goddard Space Flight Center's Lidar Observation and Validation Experiment (GLOVE) was a NASA field campaign from January–February 2025 that used a special airplane with scientific instruments to check if satellites measuring Earth's atmosphere were working correctly. The plane flew under two key satellites to compare measurements of clouds, dust, and other particles in the air. Data from 8 flights help scientists better understand how well these space-based instruments perform, especially for detecting different types of clouds and atmospheric conditions.
