CloudSAT, a cooperative mission with Canada, uses advanced radar to "slice" through clouds to see their vertical structure, providing a completely new observational capability from space. CloudSAT will look at the structure, composition, and effects of clouds and is one of the first satellites to study clouds on a global basis.
