Summary[edit]

Description
English: VANDENBERG AFB, Calif. -- At Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif., the gantry at Space Launch Complex 3E rolls back from NASA's Landsat Data Continuity Mission, or LDCM, satellite mounted atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. The Landsat Data Continuity Mission LDCM is the future of Landsat satellites. It will continue to obtain valuable data and imagery to be used in agriculture, education, business, science, and government. The Landsat Program provides repetitive acquisition of high resolution multispectral data of the Earth's surface on a global basis. The data from the Landsat spacecraft constitute the longest record of the Earth's continental surfaces as seen from space. It is a record unmatched in quality, detail, coverage, and value. Liftoff is planned for Feb. 11, 2013 aboard a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. For more information, visit: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/landsat/main/index.html
