Forum

The Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) promotes on an international level scientific research in space, with emphasis on the exchange of results, information and opinions, and provides a forum, open to all scientists, for the discussion of problems that may affect scientific space research. COSPAR...

Message from Gene Feldman on January 11th, 2008:good morning,                                                                    &...

The OV-2 spacecraft was commanded into Safe Haven last night, and the                     SeaWiFS instrument was powered off and stowed, as GeoEye continues to                     investigat...

To all SeaWiFS data users:                                                                              &...

Current EDOS GBAD processing status:                                                     1. All recoverable X-band GBAD data from DOY 337 through DOY 342 have been&#...

The Level 0 data flow from EDOS has resumed. However theattitude data required to process the files are arriving at aslower pace, therefore processing beyond Level 0 is intermittent.As the attitude data are ingested, the corresponding Level 0 datawill be processed.   The processed files wi...

4 December 2007 - Status of Aqua GBAD (Ground Based Attitude Data):The FOT (Flight Operations Team) is still trying to recover from an anomalythat prevented them from writing to the SSR (Solid State Recorder) partitionwhere the S/C (Spacecraft) engineering and GBAD (Ground Based Attitude Data)data a...

On 2 Dec 2007 at approximately 6am EST, the Aqua satellite began havingproblems with its housekeeping data.  This has resulted in the loss of alldatasets from that point on.   NASA is currently investigating the problem.Until this problem is resolved, there will be no MODIS-Aqua data ...

A satellite remote sensing course is being offered by Griffith University at its Gold Coast campus in Queensland, Australia from January 21 to February 7 2008. The course is intended for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and post-graduate professionals with modest or no prior satel...

Do you estimate marine photosynthesis using a model? Would you like to quantify the performance of the model you use? Would you like to know how your model compares with other models? This is your chance! We are conducting a study to compare models that estimate primary productivity (PP) from either...
