AbstractThe future missions of the National Aeronautics and Space administration (NASA) directed at solar system exploration, astrophysical, planetary and Earth Sciences observations will require advanced capabilities for acquiring data from space platforms. For example, NASA's terrestrial observation program is confronted by a range of challenging and important new problems derived from advances in the Earth Sciences over the past twenty years. New observational approaches appear promising for solving older problems which will benefit meteorology, agriculture, mineralogy, and geodynamics. Furthermore, many of the problems which space observations may help to solve are inherently interdisciplinary of the above areas. Although much is known about the Earth, the unifying concepts are still to be established and remote sensing from space will continue to be a vital experimental tool.
