NASA has granted a small team of University of Arizona researchers $3.46 million over 11 years to help monitor Earth s radiation budget, which is the balance between the absorbed solar energy on the surface and the infrared radiation Earth emits back into space. When Earth emits less than it absorbs, it leads to global warming.

The grant is part of the larger $150 million Libera mission that will orbit Earth to measure Earth s energy. Libera will launch in 2027 to continue the work of NASA s outgoing mission CERES, short for Clouds and the Earth s Radiant Energy System. Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture, is Libera s mother in Roman mythology.
