In this episode of Eyes on Earth, we talk with several people involved with the next Landsat mission, targeted for launch around 2030. While that may seem like a ways into the future, it takes a lot of work to prepare for such a big mission. In Part 2 of this two-part series on Landsat Next, we’ll hear about what needs to be done before launch to prepare the ground system, data processing and data calibration. Be sure to also listen to Part 1 (www.usgs.gov/centers/eros/science/eyes-earth-episo…) , where we talk about how different Landsat Next will be from previous Landsat missions, and what scientists are really looking forward to with this mission.
