This #EarthDay2021 (and others!) Teach with Earth! It's now easier to do thanks to our new educational webpage. Find classroom resources, activities for younger kids, multimedia libraries, and resourceful tools to engage students in #STEM using our planet https://t.co/DEe6cowod2

[UMBC Geography & Environmental Systems @GesUmbc]

Special shout-out to our recent @GesUmbc alum, @gabes_shakes for the work he & others are leading with @Urgeoscience. Some of us from GES, @UMBC_ICARE, @UMBC_CBEE & @JCET_UMBC have formed an URGE pod. Unlearning racism in the geosciences-excellent initiative.

Each year, millions of tons of dust from the Sahara Desert blows across the Atlantic, and fertilizes the Amazon Rainforest. New research suggests that as the climate continues to warm, less dust will be swept up by winds and carried across the ocean.

[ARCHIVED - NASA Landsat @NASA_Landsat]

Virginia developed a radar reflector that led to the discovery of previously untraceable high-altitude winds; created a transmitter that beamed Surveyor images back from the moon; and pioneered the first space-based multispectral scanner that few on #Landsat 1.

[ARCHIVED - NASA Landsat @NASA_Landsat]

Virginia T. Norwood, the engineer responsible for the first #Landsat multispectral scanner, has been honored with the 2021 @ASPRSorg Lifetime Achievement Award.

Congratulations, Virginia!
