NASA To Release Landsat 7 Data On the Web

UAVThumper writes "The US Geological Survey homepage is featuring an article about the upcoming release of select Landsat 7 image data (on June 4) at glovis.usgs.gov or earthexplorer.usgs.gov. This is to be a pilot project for a larger effort called the Landsat Data Continuity Mission, whose end result looks like a version of Google Earth using Landsat data. Seven Landsat satellites were launched over a period of 27 years, the last in 1999. More on Landsat can be found here on Wikipedia or here at the official NASA Page."

Space exploration is always a good thing

Not that I'm qualified to actually do any, other than look through a telescope and go "ooh, pretty, that's Venus", but it's still cool. Any time we can get more knowledge about The Unknown, that's a very cool thing.
