Astronaut and NOAA Capture Views and Data from Hurricane Polo's Eye
Astronaut Jessica Meir shared close-up images of Hurricane Polo's eye from the International Space Station, highlighting the storm's massive size visible from space. Meanwhile, NOAA flew a specialized WP-3D Orion aircraft directly into the Category 5 hurricane, capturing footage inside its eyewall and eye. The aircraft collected critical data on wind speed, pressure, and temperature to aid forecasting. The National Hurricane Center noted Polo's intense winds and ongoing structural changes during these observations.
