LANDSAT. The longest continuously running Earth-observing satellite program offers unique views of Earth’s land each day. We celebrate our planet every day from the vantage point of 438 miles above the surface! Check out the Landsat Science Storymap: ow.ly/JxuV50RlpPQ.
🌏🛰️ What does the future of #Earthobservation science look like?
It's out of this world! With @USGSLandsat Next launching in 2030 and partnering with @NASA and @USGS, we're building the future of #EO science from ground stations to satellites, to processing and applying EO data.
#OTD in 2008, the USGS announced intentions to open the Landsat archive and make Landsat data available for download at no charge. Former USGS Associate Director for Geography Barbara Ryan in 2018 met to talk about opening the Landsat Archive. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=Sb8QKZ….
Eyes on ice 🧊 A new EROS-supported project collects up to 42 extra Landsat images daily at the poles. LEAP uses the full capabilities of Landsats 8 & 9 to capture changes in ice extent, even during polar twilight. Read the story, then listen to a podcast: ow.ly/P5lT50RjWnK
