Washington. February 15th. INTERFAX - The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) plans to put five space observatories into orbit to monitor processes in the atmosphere over the next ten years, the head of the department Bill Nelson said on Tuesday.

"In the next 10 years, NASA is going to launch five beautiful observatories. They will give us a more accurate understanding of what is happening in the atmosphere - with ice, land and water bodies," Nelson said during a NASA teleconference.

"This year we will launch a SWOT mission (a satellite for studying the height of the sea surface - IF), with the help of it we will get data on the rise in the level of lakes, rivers and currents for the first time, in addition to what we already know about sea level rise," the head of NASA added.

Among the main tasks facing NASA, according to Nelson, is slowing down the process of global warming and preventing natural disasters.
