- Terra | The EOS Flagship
Terra: The EOS Flagship Terra explores the connections between Earth’s atmosphere, land, snow and ice, ocean, and energy balance to understand Earth’s climate and to map the impact of human activity and natural disasters on communities and ecosystems
- ASTER Data | Terra
ASTER data are are available from several archives: Earthdata Search – Search the entire ASTER data archive ALL products are available to all users at no cost: ASTER L1A, L1B, L1T; Higher Level Data Products (HLDPs) created from L1A; the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM), and the North American ASTER Land Surface Emissivity Database (NAALSED) Registration is required for all
- ASTER | Terra
This perspective image of a complex volcanic landscape in the Andean mountain range was assembled from data acquired by ASTER on April 9, 2003 ASTER produces images using infrared, red, and green wavelengths of light Vegetated areas range in color from red to pink, snow is white, water is black, and bare rock is earth-toned The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer
- MODIS - Terra
With its sweeping 2,330-km-wide viewing swath, MODIS sees every point on our world every 1-2 days in 36 discrete spectral bands Consequently, MODIS tracks a wider array of the earth’s vital signs than any other Terra sensor For instance, the sensor measures the percent of the planet’s surface that is covered by clouds almost every day

Terra Operational Changes and Data Updates Over the past three years, the Terra mission has performed multiple maneuvers that have led to changes in the satellite’s consistent 20+ year orbit* Today, Terra continues slowly drifting to an increasingly earlier overpass time and lower altitude While the orbital changes have had little to no impact on instrument data collection or quality, data
- Terra Orbital Drift Information
Terra Orbital Drift Information Terra has consistently orbited Earth from Pole to Pole for over twenty years, collecting important data about Earth’s systems Crossing the equator at 10:30 am mean local time allowed Terra’s five instruments to collect consistent, simultaneous data, important to Earth’s systems research and applications

The Terra Project fully expects the Terra platform and all five instruments to operate past 2026 allowing them to maintain their status as leaders in Earth science data production Terra’s long-term data record will continue to contribute to the Earth Science Division’s key science questions: How is the global Earth system changing?
