Park Friday, 6 Jan 06 Washington, DC DEEP SPACE CLIMATE OBSERVATORY KILLED. http://bobpark.physics.umd.edu/index.html -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined, and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853

QUOTE (scalbers @ Jul 20 2015, 09:16 AM) Yes there is good information on aerosols and the like by seeing the true color of the Earth. I wonder if they could make both original and processed imagery available? Adam Szabo confirmed to me today that they plan to release both original and processed images. Although, to be clear, they're all processed at some level. Not sure about PDS (or PDS-like) release schedule. -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
