Press Briefing: Landsat Data Continuity Mission Science Goals
At a press briefing NASA and U.S. Geological Survey scientists discuss the data they’ll look to get from the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM), the satellite due to launch from Vandenberg AFB in California on Monday, Feb. 11.
This is the eighth satellite in the Landsat series, which began in 1972 and will add to the longest continuous data record of Earth’s surface as viewed from space.
