Earth-observing satellites help us detect, monitor, and manage large forest fires. How does data from NASA space-based assets or the Canadian Space Agency’s WildFireSat program improve our capabilities to fight wildfires, and what else could be done? Join CSPS’s David Eccles as he talks to experts Joshua Johnston, PhD (Forest Fire Research Scientist, Canadian Forest Service), Everett Hinkley (National Remote Sensing Program Manager, US Forest Service), and Dr. Dee Pack (Director Remote Sensing Dept, Aerospace).

The Space Policy Show is produced by The Aerospace Corporation’s Center for Space Policy and Strategy. It is a virtual series covering a broad set of topics that span across the space enterprise. CSPS brings together experts from within Aerospace, the government, academia, business, nonprofits, and the national labs. The show and their podcasts are an opportunity to learn about and to stay engaged with the larger space policy community.
