Terra: Images & Data Gallery

In April 2000, NASA released the first collection of images from Terra, "the first satellite to monitor daily -- and on a global scale -- how the Earth's atmosphere, lands, oceans, solar radiation and life influence each other" (discussed in the March 29, 2000 Scout Report for Science and Engineering). Launched in December, Terra has completed its on-orbit checkout and is now officially "open for business," using its five onboard instruments to monitor Earth's climate changes on a long-term basis. The striking and often downright neat images, movies, and animations are presented in a variety of formats: .jpeg, .tiff, QuickTime, and .mpeg. Users can view the complete collection or browse by instrument. Some images are offered in multiple resolutions, and all have a full record with more information.
