NASA’s DC-8 flew over Greenland in May 2015, in support of a study on Arctic polar winds. The mission goals were to provide data to preexisting weather models and to collect pre-launch calibration and validation data in support of the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Atmospheric Dynamics Mission Aeolus satellite, or ADM-Aeolus.
