NASA | TIROS-1: The Forecast Revolution Begins (50th Anniversary)

[@Anonymoose]

This is a great overview and reminder, of where we've been and where we are. I was finishing my Junior year in high school when TIROS-1 was launched. It was a monumental achievement then. And look at where it's taken us...

Nice to see this video. I worked on the program for almost a decade, it deserves recognition .....

@teemuruskeepaa you said, and I quote, "It says at 2:34 that it is the photo of the planet from orbit, not a storm, dude."
Duh? Yes, it's photo of the planet, taken from orbit, showing TWO huge circulations, eg storms, demonstrating the capabilities of the satellite imagery. What part of this are you failing to understand? Better yet, what part of this is related to the "communist threat"?
