The basic objectives of the ERTS-1 mission are defined as follows: (1) to determine what data can be acquired from an orbiting satellite on the natural and cultural resources and on the environment; and (2) to develop and demonstrate the combination of data-acquisition procedures and interpretative techniques which can make this new knowledge available for use in the many facets of man's life. A general description of the satellite's observatory system and its sensors is given, including the thermal control subsystem, the power subsystem, the attitude control subsystem, the orbit adjust subsystem, the telemetry and tracking systems, the communications and data handling subsystem, the return beam vidicon subsystem, the multispectral scanner subsystem, the two wideband video tape recorders, and the data collection subsystem.
