Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Logo

This emblem depicts the official logo of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), an important joint venture dedicated to observing precipitation in tropical and subtropical regions. Designed as a stylized raindrop, the logo showcases the TRMM satellite orbiting Earth, with its radar emitting a beam towards a rain cloud, illustrating its primary function of measuring rainfall. The design beautifully combines elements of space, Earth, and meteorological phenomena. Text along the border identifies the mission as "TROPICAL RAINFALL MEASURING MISSION" in English and "熱帯降雨観測衛星" (Tropical Rainfall Observing Satellite) in Japanese, along with the acronym "TRMM" and the collaborating agencies: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA/GSFC) and Japan's National Space Development Agency (NASDA) / Communications Research Laboratory (CRL).
