On March 29-30, 2013, the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (later named Landsat 8) was in position under the Landsat 7 satellite. This provided opportunities for near-coincident data collection from both satellites.

Landsat 8’s first image captured the area where the Great Plains and Rocky Mountains meet in Colorado in March 2013. The natural-color image shows the coniferous forest of the mountains coming down to the dormant plains. Boulder, Colorado, sits in the middle of the image.

This image of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula was captured by the Multispectral Scanner (MSS) instrument onboard the Landsat 5 satellite on January 7, 2013.

A tile drain concentrates and transports irrigation water and the chemicals it contains to a stream.

The Multispectral Scanner (MSS) on board Landsat 5 satellite captured imagery of the southern Louisiana coastline on April 10, 2012, after the sensor was turned back on after being off for nearly a dozen years. This image is a portion of the scene from WRS-2 Path 23 Row 40. The MSS sensor collected nearly 15,000 scenes from 2012 to January 7, 2013. 

This illustration shows the Landsat 8 satellite in space over the southeastern United States. 

The roughly west-east trail of destruction from the April 27, 2011, Tuscaloosa-Birmingham tornado is clearly visible in these Landsat images. This was one of 358 recorded tornadoes during the April 25-28, 2011, tornado outbreak, the most severe in U.S. history.
