I remember the launch of the 1st Landsat. It promised to change our view of this world, and in spite of the many calls for the program to be shut down, it has consistently exceeded that promise by orders of magnitude. 🖖🌏👍
The 12Mth image, and it's of our beautiful Mojave no less. I work in some of those agricultural areas along the river, and the Landsats' thermal imagers are invaluable for understanding water use. All of this provided to the world, for free, for decades. A huge service to humanity.

I recognized the thumbnail immediately. I've hiked all over that patch of desert. 🤩
I live near Hawaii Volcanoes 🌋 National Park and we love the USGS .
I do too and I do too!
But isnt that huge rare earth mine owned by a Chinese based corporation and has been shut down due to California regulations and all?
Just showing its existence, nothing more. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@gus473 No worries I added details. Personally I mine gem opals.
Love the way you used the symbols ❤ @@gus473
