Remote Sensing
Remote sensing explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine you're trying to figure out what's for dinner without leaving your couch. This is similar to remote sensing, where scientists collect data about the Earth's surface without being physically present. Just like using binoculars to see what's on the dining table from afar, remote sensing uses satellites or aircraft to gather information about an area, allowing us to "see" and understand what's happening from a distance.
