In September, Landsat 9 is scheduled to launch and continue this legacy. In honor of the launch, we invite you to get creative and show us what Landsat means to you. Create art or make a craft that’s inspired by a favorite Landsat image or the satellite itself, and share it with us on social media. | | | Opportunities With Our Partners | | | | Audience: K-12 and Informal Educators, Parents and Caregivers
Sally Ride EarthKAM is a free STEM educational program. EarthKAM allows students to take images of Earth from space using a camera aboard the International Space Station.
