      ... not only from weather balloons.
      A new video from NASA, introduces us to the COSMIC-2 mission.
      This mission (by using GPS data) will provide
      a revolutionary increase in the number of atmospheric observations,
      which will greatly benefit the accuracy of weather models.

              On Tuesday, June 25, SpaceX launched the STP-2 mission and placed
              in orbit the NOAA-sponsored COSMIC-2 satellites constellation.
              Here you can find out "what is COSMIC-2" and "how does it work".

                I'd say that understanding the English idiom "all Greek to you" makes you more than qualified to write something @Gkikas-LGPZ!
