OCO-3 - Orbiting Carbon Observatory 3

OCO-3 - Orbiting Carbon Observatory 3 Project Logo

The Orbiting Carbon Observatory 3, or OCO-3, is a space instrument flying on the International Space Station designed to investigate important questions about the distribution of carbon dioxide on Earth.

NASA plans to develop and assemble the instrument using spare materials from the successful development and launch of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 in 2014 and host the instrument on the International Space Station or another space-based platform.
