Why scientists are counting tiny marine creatures from Space

Scientists are using satellites to count Antarctic krill, tiny but crucial marine creatures that play a vital role in the ecosystem. By studying how krill change the color of seawater, researchers aim to monitor their population from Space, as concerns grow about climate change and unsustainable fishing threatening their survival. This innovative approach could provide a new tool to protect these essential species and maintain the delicate balance of the Antarctic marine environment.
