Space may be the final frontier, but it is also an increasingly viable one for New Zealand as our scientists partner with NASA to engage in mutually beneficial research.
Scion, an arm of the New Zealand Institute for Bioeconomy Science is collaborating with NASA on two studies which have grown out of a shared need to respond more effectively to the challenges of climate change and to better manage scarce resources.
Scion lead researchers Shana Gross and Dean Meason talk to Mihingarangi about how this collaboration could help limit the damage from wildfires and improve our decision making around water and land use.
