Title
EO-1 Mission: Transition from technology demonstration to science path finder
Abstract
The National Aeronautics And Space Administration (NASA), in coordination with the United States Geological Survey (USGS), has extended the highly successful Earth Observing 1 (EO-1) mission through fiscal year 2007 (September 30, 2007). This decision is based in part on lower cost, highly autonomous satellite operations developed by NASA, continued scientific interest in EO-1 image data, and the need for back-up imaging capability in the event Landsat 5 or Landsat 7 fails before the launch of the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM), currently anticipated for 2012. At present, there are no known obstacles to EO-1 supplying useful data through that time frame. Funding for an additional two years of operation of E-1 is being considered being under NASA's senior review process.
