Notes from the Field

One of the CubeSats launching with Landsat 9 is the Cusp Plasma Imaging Detector (CuPID), which will image the boundary where Earth’s magnetic field interacts with the Sun’s.

Landsat satellites have enabled numerous applications in diverse fields, including the monitoring of global agriculture and food security applications.
