Our 91st mission has begun! Don't miss your opportunity to view Earth's incredible features this week with EarthKAM! Any school, homeschool, or youth organization can sign up to participate for free at https://t.co/MQ1ZVBysga.
Several amazing images were taken this past mission, like this one of the Albemarle-Pamlico Region in North Carolina, the second largest estuary in the U.S.. With EarthKAM, students get a unique birds-eye view to explore critical ecosystems like this from space!
