Website of the Week
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/
Most of us would be aware of the bushfires currently burning in south eastern Australia as they have featured prominently in the media. Some of our readers may have been unfortunate enough to have experienced them first hand. The extent of the problem is immediately obvious from satellite images on the Earth Observatory website.
The Natural Hazards icon on the site’s home page will take you to a map of the world that has various symbols indicating where natural hazards are currently occurring. If you click on the symbol for bushfires in Australia you will be taken to a satellite image showing the extent of the bushfires and the smoke rising from them.
Other items of interest include the Experiments section of the website which contains "interactive experiments that can be used to teach all ages about the art and science of space-based Remote Sensing." Remote Sensing is used by NASA to study how and why the earth changes.
The Blue Marble is a spectacular view of the earth that has been compiled from surface observations collected from June to October 2001. There is a detailed explanation of the data used to make up this image and how it was collected, as well as an animated image of the earth turning.
As you can imagine, these are only a few features of this fascinating site. There is also a Resources section containing many useful links, a Newsroom and information about current missions. If you and/or your students have an interest in how our earth is changing spend some time browsing the site. You will be fascinated by what you learn!
