From the Sun Students learn about the history of Earth imaging, the Landsat satellite program. They develop interpretation skills as they play a game that involves inferring the subjects of various Landsat images.
Students show understanding of the history and development of Earth sensing.
Students can describe Landsat and its role in modern Earth imaging. Students use knowledge of Landsat's capabilities to make reasoned inferences about the geographic locations shown in Landsat images. Students or groups may be assigned to present various parts of the Earth sensing and Landsat material to the rest of the class, and assessed on their presentations. 14.4K 26.16 sec. 28.8K 14.34 sec.
