On July 23, 1972 NASA launched the first satellite in this program, then known as ERTS, the Earth Resources Technology Satellite and later renamed Landsat 1. In honor of that history, NASA edited together selections of an archive video from 1973 about the ERTS launch.Featured in this 1973 video was a senior geologist at NASA, Nicholas Short, and at Dartmouth College, Robert Simpson and David Lindgren. NASA and the U.S. Department of the Interior through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) jointly manage Landsat, and the USGS preserves a nearly 50-year archive of Landsat data that is freely available over the Internet. The next Landsat satellite, known as Landsat 9, is scheduled for launch in 2021.For more information about Landsat visit www.nasa.gov/landsat, or landsat.usgs.govTo watch the entire 23-minute long NASA archive video of the ERTS Launch, go here. || ", "release_date": "2012-07-23T10:00:00-04:00", "update_date": "2024-02-16T22:49:20.235429-05:00", "main_image": { "id": 474008, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a011000/a011051/Landsat_ERTS_1973_Still.png", "filename": "Landsat_ERTS_1973_Still.png", "media_type": "Image", "alt_text": "Edited archival video from 1973.For complete transcript, click here.Watch this video on the NASA Goddard YouTube channel.", "width": 1280, "height": 720, "pixels": 921600 } }, { "id": 11008, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/11008/", "page_type": "Produced Video", "title": "WMAP—From the Archives", "description": "On June 20, 2012, Dr. Charles Bennett and the WMAP team were awarded the Gruber Cosmology Prize. The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) was built and launched by NASA to measure a remnant of the early universe - its oldest light. The conditions of the early times are imprinted on this light. It is the result of what happened earlier, and a backlight for the later development of the universe. This light lost energy as the universe expanded over 13.7 billion years, so WMAP now sees the light as microwaves. By making accurate measurements of microwave patterns, WMAP has answered many longstanding questions about the universe's age, composition and development.This video from Goddard's tape archive features Dr. Bennett after the first results were announced in 2003. || ", "release_date": "2012-06-21T16:00:00-04:00", "update_date": "2023-05-03T13:52:59.415060-04:00", "main_image": { "id": 475064, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a011000/a011008/WMAPportrait0720.jpg", "filename": "WMAPportrait0720.jpg", "media_type": "Image", "alt_text": "Short video featuring interviews with Dr. Charles Bennett and Dr. Lyman PageFor complete transcript, click here.", "width": 1280, "height": 720, "pixels": 921600 } }, { "id": 10775, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10775/", "page_type": "B-Roll", "title": "GSFC Archival Footage", "description": "Footage of Goddard Space Flight Center through the years.
