    Topic 1f - What we measure – overview of key parameters measured with satellite

    The NASA app was very good. I have quickly gone through CATS eyes on the atmosphere. The EUMETSAT Atmosphere MOOC Data Viewer is also a very useful tool. I can see high concentration of PM 2.5 over Delhi, India where I live. This MOOC is of such a good quality that application like the one mentioned above is specifically designed for MOOC mates.

    Introducing science writing

    Its the science documantaries by nat geo , discovery and history channel that educates me about interesting science. I like the documentary "Evacuate Earth National Geographic Documentary" .
