Webinar for Earth to Sky - Telling Stories with Landsat: Make a Landsat GIF!


NESEC team member and Oregon State University researcher Peder Nelson led a webinar Oct. 13 for Earth to Sky titled “Telling Stories with Landsat: Make a Landsat GIF!” Peder contextualized Landsat science, highlighted tools like LandTrendr that interpreters can use to make satellite imagery timelapses of their sites, and encouraged interpreters and informal educators to come up with their own ways to create stories about their sites using Landsat data. 18 community members attended and demonstrated great interest. Comments included:

The high-quality recording on the Earth to Sky website was then distributed to several relevant networks.

Peder Nelson uses Mt Saint Helens data to demonstrate how to create a GIF of Landsat imagery using the LandTrendr tool.

NASA Mission Gets Its First Snapshot of Polar Heat Emissions

The PREFIRE mission will help develop a more detailed understanding of how much heat the Arctic and Antarctica radiate into space and how this influences global climate. NASA’s newest climate mission has started collecting data on the amount of heat in the form of far-infrared radiation that the Arctic and Antarctic environments emit to space. […]

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
