Where is the Beef?
No where in the article does it specify the accuracy of measuring the surface temperature on an object 22,000 miles away. My point is weather satellites can NOT read temperatures with enough accuracy that would be necessary to determine whether the earth is warmer or cooling. Temp data for this purpose must be VERY accurate. A +/- 0.5 degree error on a weather satellite would be enough to invalidate the readings and the research it was based upon.....hence the need for weather stations on the surface.....Not 22,000 miles away in orbit.
