Landsat 9 Mission

Landsat 9 Mission

Landsat 9 is the latest Earth observation satellite in the Landsat series and it was launched on 27 September 2021. Landsat 9 will continue Landsat's irreplaceable record of Earth's land surface. Since 1972, Landsat data have provided a unique resource for those who work in agriculture, geology, forestry, regional planning, education, mapping, and global-change research. Landsat images have also proved invaluable to the International Charter: Space and Major Disasters, supporting emergency response and disaster relief to save lives.
