Satellites track Earth's shifting center of mass with new precision

Earth's center of mass moves millimeters each season as water, ice, and air migrate across the globe. NASA scientists have now calibrated a method to track these tiny swings with new precision, integrating laser-ranging satellites, GPS, and crustal deformation data into a validated, real-time measurement. This is empirical ocean intelligence at work. Understanding these shifts sharpens our climate indicators.
