The observations are distributed internationally. The red dots represent science centers participating in the global experiment. The white dots on this map show each observation submitted through the app in that period. More than 900 cloud observations, including more than 5,500 photos, came in. ![]() As part of the part of International Science Center and Science Museum Day (ISCSMD), the experiment built upon UNESCO’s theme of “Science for Peace and Development.” The goal was to create new ways for museums and science centers worldwide to proactively address global sustainability while reaching increasingly diverse audiences. Between October 1 and October 22, NASA asked museums and science centers around the world to participate in a global experiment collecting observations of clouds while NASA satellites were overhead.
