The image below shows you the NASA missions and their satellites. Different satellites are used to measure and monitor various aspects of Earth and the human activity on its surface. In this assignment, you are tasked with selecting one of the satellites depicted in the image (or another NASA mission) and create 200-300 word profile for your selected satellite. Consider the following questions:
When was the satellite launched? What wavelengths does it capture? What is the information used to study (i.e. groundwater, wild fires, urbanization)? How often does the satellite capture an image of a single location on Earth (i.e. the return period)? When is the satellite expected to be decommissioned? Has the mission been extended or is it expected to be proceeded by the launch of another satellite (i.e. Landsat 8 to Landsat 9)?
Complete your profile in a word document and upload the text in a .docx or PDF file.
