Abstract
NASA astronauts routinely document Earth processes during Space Shuttle missions using analog and digital camera systems. These efforts have resulted in an impressive database of over 250,000 Earth images. This paper succintly discusses the camera systems and applications of this database. Using Mount Pinatubo (Phillippines), as an example, we illustrate the value of such observations for change detection.
