Why NASA Uses Satellites and Airplanes to Study Frogs

The video explores the mysterious decline of amphibians, primarily due to chytridiomycosis, a devastating fungal disease. Researchers have used satellites and airplanes to study the disease's impact and map amphibian habitats. Despite challenges like climate change and human activity, there are signs of recovery, with some species showing resilience and successful eradication efforts using fungicides.
