Happy #NationalCameraDay! While not a camera per se, #Landsat’s OLI instrument captures beautiful images of our planet. 🌍

The imager on the upcoming Landsat Next satellites will see changes on Earth’s surface with more precise detail than ever before. https://go.nasa.gov/3CSga7v

Earth at night. 🌏🖤

Dark skies help us see the brilliant color of auroras, pinpoint constellations and other planets in the night sky, and are important for the health of plants, insects, animals, and humans. #DarkSkyWeek
#NASAEarth

Scientists compared nighttime lights seen by NASA satellites and @cdc health data.

They found that poorer, non-white neighborhoods experience more artificial light at night, which can disrupt circadian rhythms and cause sleep deficiency. #DarkSkyWeek

#ICESat2 fires 10,000 laser pulses a second, sending six green beams of light toward Earth.

Scientists can measure the height of ice, oceans, trees and more based on how long it takes those beams to bounce off Earth and return to the satellite. http://go.nasa.gov/6851

Air quality is an important contributor to disease. #NPHW

NASA-funded scientists linked health outcomes to satellite measurements of air pollutants like nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter (PM2.5). https://go.nasa.gov/3Kx5T5u

It’s National Public Health Week!

@nasa data is key for scientists to understand public health risks like wildfire smoke, dust storms, night lights and more to keep communities healthy. #NPHW
