First methane-tracking satellite launched by an NGO. While contact is lost, the mission continues: advancing tech, sharing data, cutting emissions. A project of Environmental Defense Fund.
🔎 New MethaneSAT insights reveal a striking contrast between states in the Permian.

In New Mexico, which has strong methane protections, methane intensity is less than half that of operations in Texas.

A bold idea. A breakthrough mission. A year of seeing the unseen. We set out to close a critical data gap – and delivered global insights that will keep driving action.

The mission continues. We’re continuing to process and release these insights.

In this TED Talk, Scientist Daniel Zavala-Araiza explains how satellite technology accelerates methane mitigation at scale. 🛰️

With high-resolution satellite data, we can pinpoint high-emitting regions and prioritize emissions reductions where they have the greatest impact.
