Landstat 1 and CORONA Satellite
Been digging through some of that Landstat 1 satellite photos from the early 1970s and also some of the declassified CORONA satellite images from the early 1960s on Earth Explorer.
While the images are pretty low resolution – they’re satellite from 50 years ago – they’re still fascinating to get a glimpse of the earth from outer space a half century ago. I want to download more the next time I’m at the library, maybe tomorrow.
