Landsat Next is on the horizon—the new mission will not only ensure continuity of the longest space-based record of Earth’s land surface, it will fundamentally transform the breadth and depth of actionable information freely available to end users. Take a look at the new capabilities that will define the next Landsat mission.
NASA’s Harmonized Landsat and Sentinel-2 (HLS) project is a groundbreaking initiative that combines data from Landsats 8 & 9 with the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2A & 2B satellites.
Landsat satellites have begun regularly acquiring images of ice at the poles during the winter, with enlightening results.
Landsat 9’s OLI-2 instrument was characterized in unprecedented detail using a new laser-based method of in-band spectral response testing. A continuous relative spectral response dataset and pre-launch testing details have been published in a recent paper.

The NASA/USGS Landsat Program provides the longest continuous space-based record of Earth’s land in existence. Landsat data give us information essential for making informed decisions about Earth’s resources and environment.
