    Alphabetical  |  By Popularity
    • AIM: Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere Open site in a new window - Learn about AIM, the satellite mission that will explore polar mesospheric clouds (PMCs), also called noctilucent clouds, to find out why they form and why they are changing.
    • AMSAT - This Is SuitSat-1 RS0RS Open site in a new window - Find out how to connect to SuitSat, the most unusual Amateur Radio satellite ever orbited. Learn how to track the surplus Russian Orlan spacesuit, tossed out of the ISS on February 3rd, 2006.
    • CloudSat (4) - Learn about CloudStat, a satellite designed to study the Earth's precipitation and cloud cover. Find sites from NASA and Colorado State University's Department of Atmospheric Science.
    • COSMIC Open site in a new window - Learn about COSMIC/FORMOSAT-3, the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate, and Taiwan's Formosa Satellite Mission #3.
    • CRRES Mission Open site in a new window - Combined Release and Radiation Effects Satellite is part of the SPACERAD project of the USAF. It is a triple mission to perform active experiments.
    • CryoSat-2 - ESA Open site in a new window - European Space Agency Cryo-Stat 2 mission using radar altimetry to study the Earth's continental and marine ice cover.
    • Earth Observing System (EOS)@
    • ESA Meteosat Second Generation Open site in a new window - Offers information on the satellites that deliver images meteorologists use to forecast earth's weather.
    • European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) Open site in a new window - Intergovernmental organisation whose activities contribute to a global meteorological satellite observing system coordinated with other space-faring nations.
    • FUSE: Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Open site in a new window - Exploration of the universe using the technique of high-resolution spectroscopy in the far-ultraviolet spectral region.
    • Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) Open site in a new window - Uses twin satellites (Tom and Jerry) to make detailed measurements of Earth's gravity field.
    • ICESat Open site in a new window - Spacecraft measuring variations in the ice sheets in Greenland, Antarctica, and elsewhere, as well as cloud and aerosol heights, land topography, and vegetation characteristics.
    • Keo (2)
    • Mars Gravity Biosatellite Project Open site in a new window - A private initiative to study the effects of Martian gravity on mammals where a satellite will carry a population of mice to simulate the gravity on the Martian surface.
    • Munin Nanosatellite Open site in a new window - Joint project between IRF, RYP, Luth and SwRI. It is a pilot project to demonstrate the possibility to use satellites of nano-size for scientific measurement.
    • NASA CALIPSO Open site in a new window - Learn how Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO), along with the CloudSat satellite, will provide a new, 3-D perspective on Earth's clouds and airborne particles called aerosols.
    • NASA Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) Open site in a new window - Learn about the Orbiting Carbon Observatory designed to collect precise global measurements of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth's atmosphere.
    • NASA SuitSat Open site in a new window - Learn how you can listen to a disembodied spacesuit circling Earth, SuitSat, using a simple police scanner or ham radio.
    • NASA's Explorers Program (4)
    • NASA/USGS Landsat Program (5) - Find millions of images of the Earth's surface that have been taken by the Landsat series of satellites since 1972.
