| Project Description |
Personnel from NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center and Edwards Air Force Base conducted a training exercise on May 5, 2007, that would enable them to effectively handle the rescue of a space shuttle crew in the unlikely event of a landing mishap at the base. The exercises are held periodically to train Air Force fire/rescue and medical crews in aiding the shuttle crew in exiting the shuttle after a simulated landing mishap on or near the Edwards runway, escaping from the mishap area, and after triage assessment, safely evacuating injured crew members. Although NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida is the landing site of choice for space shuttle missions, Edwards AFB remains the primary alternate landing site in case weather or other situations preclude Florida as a landing option. |

Space Shuttle Atlantis descended to a smooth landing at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., concluding a successful assembly mission to the International Space Station. With Commander Rick Sturckow and Pilot Lee Archambault at the controls, Atlantis landed at 12:49 p.m. PDT on June 22, 2007. Atlantis launched June 8, 2007, and arrived at the International Space Station on June 10. While at the orbital outpost, the crew installed the Starboard 3 and 4 truss segment and conducted four spacewalks to activate it. During the third spacewalk, the crew repaired an out of position thermal blanket on the left orbital maneuvering system pod. Atlantis also delivered a new station crew member, Flight Engineer Clayton Anderson. He replaced astronaut Suni Williams, who is the new record holder for a long-duration single spaceflight for a woman. She arrived at the station in December of 2006 with STS-116. STS-117 is the 118th shuttle mission and 21st mission to visit the space station. |

Haze off the United States East Coast |
| Description |
Haze collected off the coasts of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida on August 6, 2007. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] flying on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this image the same day. In this image, the haze appears as a blue-gray blur extending toward the Atlantic Ocean. Over land, the haze appears especially thick over Georgia. Although this image shows some wildfires, marked by red dots, the haze likely results from fires farther away, in the U.S. Northwest. [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14433 ] An August 6, 2007, posting on the U.S. Air Quality [ http://alg.umbc.edu/usaq/ ] (Smog Blog) at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, described poor air quality along the U.S. East Coast, and provided a map of aerosol optical depth measured by Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES). Aerosol optical depth indicates how much sunlight is intercepted by tiny suspended particles of solid or liquid in the air column. In the same area where this haze appears, GOES showed high readings, confirming the presence of aerosols.

Drought in the United States |
| Description |
This vegetation index image shows patterns of plant growth across the United States for the last ten days of May 2007 compared to average conditions during the same period from 2000 through 2006. A splash of green up the nation's interior points to abundant, fast-growing vegetation, while brown on both coasts indicates more sparse vegetation than average. Early May treated the Midwestern United States from Texas to North Dakota to heavy, even excessive, rain. The rain brought floods [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14265 ], but it also spurred plant growth, as this image shows. Conditions on both the East and West Coasts of the United States are less rosy. Here, drought has limited plant growth, particular in the south. Dark red-brown dominates in southern California in the west and Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina in the east. The dry conditions indicated in this image gave rise to extensive wildfires in California, [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14258 ] Georgia, [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14282 ] and Florida. [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14283 ] The image was made from data collected by the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and processed by the Global Inventory Modeling & Mapping Studies (GIMMS [ http://gimms.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ]) Group at Goddard Space Flight Center. Grey areas indicate that the satellite was unable to collect valid data, probably because of cloud cover throughout the period.

Drought in the United States
| Title |
Drought in the United States |
| Description |
May 2007 was a record-setting month in Georgia. Typically a dry month in this southern state, May 2007 was exceptionally so, with many locations setting record-low rainfall records and some receiving no rain at all, said state climatologist David Emory Stooksbury on GeorgiaDrought.org. [ http://www.apps.caes.uga.edu/news/storypage.cfm?storyid=3141 ] The lack of rain slowed plant growth, as shown in this vegetation index image. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite collected the data used to make this image between May 9 and May 24, 2007. The image shows vegetation conditions compared to average conditions observed from 2000 through 2006. Areas in which plants are more sparse or are growing more slowly than average are brown, while better-than-average growth is green. Georgia and its neighbors (South Carolina, Alabama, and Florida) are all brown, an indication that the lack of rainfall is suppressing plant growth. The gray area in southern Georgia and northern Florida shows where MODIS could not collect valid vegetation measurements, either because of clouds or smoke. In this case, the area corresponds with land that burned [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14282 ] during this period and was probably masked by smoke.

El Nino Rainfall Patterns ov

| Title |
El Nino Rainfall Patterns over the United States |
| Description |
An anomalous warming of the central and eastern Pacific along the equator is part of a well-known climate event called El Niño. An El Niño began in the spring of 2006 and reached its peak in November and December. El Niño has far reaching effects. The anomalous warming of sea surface temperatures in the eastern Pacific affects general atmospheric circulation patterns, which impacts both temperature and precipitation patterns well into middle latitudes. Deviations in the rainfall patterns across the United States due to El Niño are well-established based on past events. The northern Gulf Coast experiences above-average rainfall, as do California and the Southwest due to a stronger-than-average subtropical jet stream. The Ohio Valley and the Northwest tend to see below-normal rainfall. These deviations from the normal rainfall pattern are illustrated in this image, made from the near-real-time, Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (MPA), which is produced at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, based in part on data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM [ http://trmm.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ]) satellite. MPA rainfall anomalies across the United States are shown here for December 25, 2006, through January 25, 2007. The anomalies are obtained by subtracting the average rainfall from the recent values. The average rainfall measurements are based on data collected since TRMM's launch in November 1997. Several of the notable features associated with El Niño are evident. The northern Gulf Coast west of Florida is wetter than average as is southern California. The Four Corners region in the Southwest is also very moist, which is typical for El Niño. Drier-than-normal conditions are evident over the Ohio Valley. There are some exceptions to the expected El Niño rainfall patterns, however. Montana, for example, is usually drier than average during El Niño but appears relatively moist, and Florida is usually wetter than average but shows below-normal rainfall for the period. Also, the dry anomaly in the Northwest is concentrated over northern California instead of spreading over Washington and Oregon as might be expected. TRMM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency, JAXA. Image produced by Hal Pierce (SSAI/NASA GSFC) and caption by Steve Lang (SSAI/NASA GSFC). |

Lake Okeechobee Complex Fire
| Title |
Lake Okeechobee Complex Fire |
| Description |
The extreme drought in Florida is taking its toll on the level of the state's largest lake. As water levels in Lake Okeechobee drop, marshy areas along the shore are drying out and becoming flammable. This cloud-dotted image of the lake on May 30, 2007, was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite. Using not only visible light, but also shortwave and near-infrared, the image highlights burned areas (brick red) and areas where there was likely open flame (bright pink glows). Unburned vegetation is bright green, water is dark blue, and clouds are light blue and white. Smoke is translucent blue. Places where the MODIS detected active fire are outlined in red. (The absence of a fire-detection outline around some of the bright pink areas may be because clouds or smoke interfered with the automatic fire-detection process). The large image provided above has a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provide twice-daily images of this area in additional resolutions and formats (including photo-like images) via a clickable map.

Lake Okeechobee Complex Fire
| Title |
Lake Okeechobee Complex Fire |
| Description |
Florida's multi-year drought reached extreme levels in late spring 2007, and the impacts ranged from water restrictions to dangerous wildfires. The water levels in Lake Okeechobee hit record low levels in May and June, and swampy vegetation around the retreating shoreline began to dry out. At the end of May, more than 10,000 acres of desiccated vegetation in Buckhead Marsh burned in a fast-moving, wind-driven wildfire. [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14283 ] This image shows the burn scar left on the landscape by the fire. Captured on June 23, 2007, by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) [ http://asterweb.jpl.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite, the image reveals that a huge swath of the marsh between the lake and the surrounding Herbert Hoover Dyke was scorched. The burned area appears charcoal, while vegetation appears green. A few isolated clouds cast black shadows to their west. Roadways and canals appear as white lines. Small developed areas appear grayish-white. Lake Okeechobee appears silvery blue because of bright sunlight reflecting off the surface. Between mid-May and mid-June 2007, drought intensity across southern Florida, including the area around Lake Okeechobee, teetered back and forth between Category D3 (extreme drought) and D2 (severe drought) on the U.S. Drought Monitor's scale. According to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers report from June 24, 2007, Lake Okeechobee water levels were nearly 4.5 feet below their long-term average (1965-2006) for this time of year. Much of the area between the burn scar and the lake itself was previously underwater, it was exposed as the water level fell.

Fires in Georgia and Florida

Fires in Georgia and Florida |
| Description |
Several large fires were burning in southern Georgia on April 29, 2007, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite passed overhead and captured this image. Places where MODIS detected actively burning fires are outlined in red. The Roundabout Fire sprang up on April 27, according to the U.S. Southern Area Coordination Center, [ http://gacc.nifc.gov/sacc/predictive/intelligence/intelligence.htm ] and was about 3,500 acres as of April 30. That fire was threatening homes in the community of Kirkland. Meanwhile, south of Waycross, two large blazes were burning next to each other in the northern part of Okefenokee Swamp. The Sweat Farm Road Fire (previous images [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14230 ]) threatened the town of Waycross in previous weeks, but at the end of April, activity had moved to the southeastern perimeter. The fire had affected more than 50,000 acres of timber (including pine tree plantations) and swamps. Scores of residences scattered throughout the rural area are threatened. The Big Turnaround Complex is burning to the east. The 26,000-acre fire was extremely active over the weekend, with flame lengths more than 60 feet (just over 18 meters) in places. The two blazes appeared to overlap in fire perimeter maps available from the U.S. Geospatial Multi-Agency Coordination Team. [ http://geomac.usgs.gov/# ] According to the Southern Area Coordination Center morning report on April 30, the Sweat Farm Road Fire "will be a long term fire. Containment and control will depend on significant rainfall, due to the inaccessible swamp terrain." No expected containment date was available for the Big Turnaround Complex Fire, either. Describing that fire, the report stated, "Heavy fuel loading, high fire danger, and difficulty of access continue to hamper suppression efforts."

Fires in Georgia and Florida |
| Description |
Smoke hung over the coasts of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina on May 2, 2007, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite passed overhead and captured this image. Several large fires have been burning in Georgia for weeks, and because some parts of the fires are burning in inaccessible swamps, they will probably not be fully contained until significant rain falls on the area, according to reports from the Southern Area Coordination Center. MODIS detected actively burning fires in several locations, which are marked in red. The most prominent fire in the scene is the Roundabout Fire in Georgia. To its southeast, two "hotspot" locations surrounded by thick smoke may be active locations of either the Sweat Farm Road or Big Turnaround Complex Fires, these two fires are burning adjacent to each other in the northern parts of the Okefenokee Swamp. The large image provided above has a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides twice-daily [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/ ] images of the United States in additional resolutions.

On May 16, 2007, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite detected several active fire locations (outlined in red) in northern Florida and southern Georgia. The Bugaboo Fire straddles the state line, and it had burned more than 250,000 acres as of May 17. Hundreds of residences, mature timber (both on tree plantations and in state parks), and habitat for threatened and endangered species were threatened by the fire.

On Tuesday, May 8, 2007, fires in Georgia and Florida churned out thick plumes of smoke that flowed south and then west over the Gulf of Mexico. When the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite passed overhead that morning, it captured this image of the fires and the thick smoke. Places where MODIS detected actively burning fires are outlined in red. Northwest of Jacksonville, Florida, numerous fires were burning in a wide variety of landscapes in and around the Okefenokee Swamp, including hardwood and pine forests, pine plantations, brush, and saw grass. Fires had been burning in this area since mid-April. Between Jacksonville and Orlando, a cluster of brushfires near the town of Starke forced hundreds of people to evacuate from their homes on Tuesday. Southeast of Cape Coral, the Balsa Fire was burning in chaparral on the outskirts of Everglades National Park. Fires are not uncommon in the swamps and southern pine forests of the Southeast. Many of the plant communities are adapted to fire and depend on it for clearing the ground to make way for new seedlings. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, drought gripped the Southeast as of May 1, 2007, with the level reaching "extreme" in southeastern Georgia, northern Florida, and southern Florida. Throughout the rest of Georgia and Florida, drought was moderate to severe. The drought would make it easier for both natural and human-caused fires to become large and out of control. The high-resolution image provided above has a spatial resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides the image in additional resolutions.

Fires continued to burn in southern Georgia on May 7, 2007, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite captured this image. Places where the sensor detected actively burning fire are outlined in red. The largest, smokiest locations in the eastern half of the scene are probably associated with the Big Turnaround Complex Fire. In late April and early May, the Big Turnaround Complex and another fire, the Sweat Farm Road Fire, were burning near each other south of the city of Waycross, Georgia. According to the May 8 report from the U.S. Southern Area Coordination Center, the Big Turnaround Complex was the more active of the two on the day of this image.

Fires in Georgia and Florida |
| Description |
The Bugaboo Fire (called "Bugaboo Scrub" in Georgia and "Florida Bugaboo" in Florida) marched across the Okefenokee Swamp and adjacent land, including pine plantations and state parks, in Georgia and Florida in May 2007. As of May 20, the Southern Area Coordination Center estimated the size of the affected area as more than 287,000 acres (1,161 square kilometers). A lightning strike started the blaze on Bugaboo Scrub Island in the Okefenokee Swamp in southeastern Georgia on May 5, and the fire engulfed thousands of acres a day as it spread south into Florida. This pair of images from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite shows the fire on Sunday, May 20, at 12:20 p.m. The top image is a photo-like view of the area, while the bottom image has been enhanced with shortwave- and near-infrared light detected by MODIS to highlight the burned area, which appears brick red. Vegetation appears bright green, and water appears dark blue. Places where MODIS detected actively burning fires are outlined in red. Fires are not uncommon in the peat-rich swamps of the southeastern United States. The Okefenokee Swamp harbors diverse vegetation communities, from marshes to tree-covered islands. During times of drought, the thick layers of peat—dead vegetation that doesn't decay because it is submerged in water—dry out and become extremely flammable, as do the marsh grasses and scrub vegetation. Southern pine trees add to the flammability. In May 2007, southeastern Georgia and northern Florida were experiencing extreme drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor, which increased the risk that any fires that did start this season would become large and out-of-control. The large image provided above has a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel.

Fires in Georgia and Florida |
| Description |
Scattered clouds over Florida and Georgia during the last week of May 2007 made it difficult for NASA satellites to capture images of the sprawling Bugaboo and Big Turnaround Complex Fires. The Bugaboo Fire had been burning on either side of the state line in the Okefenokee Swamp since the first week of May. The Big Turnaround Complex southeast of Waycross, Georgia, had been burning since mid-April. This pair of partly cloudy images was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite on May 30, 2007. The top image is a photo-like version of the area, while the bottom image is an infrared-enhanced version that highlights the burned areas. Places where MODIS detected actively burning fire are outlined in red. In this type of false-color image, bright pink (glowing) areas often indicate open flame. (The absence of a "hotspot" outline around some of these glowing areas is probably because clouds or smoke interfered with the automatic fire-detection process.) The exact boundary between the fires is not clear, in essence there is a mammoth fire burning in a broken line more than 50 miles long. A swath of clouds, partially mingled with smoke, cuts through the scene. Southern Georgia and Florida are experiencing extreme drought. In the normally swampy terrain that is common in this part of the country, dead vegetation accumulates without completely decaying because it is frequently submerged in water. When these layers of dead vegetation, or peat, dry out, they are extremely flammable. Fire officials have said that these fires could burn for months, heavy rains over an extended period of time will likely be needed to totally extinguish them. The large image provided above is the infrared-enhanced version at a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provide twice-daily images of this area in both natural and false color in additional resolutions via a clickable map.

Subtropical Storm Andrea
| Title |
Subtropical Storm Andrea |
| Description |
The circling clouds of an intense low-pressure system sat off the southeast coast of the United States on May 8, 2007, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this image. By the following morning, the storm had developed enough to be classified as a subtropical storm, a storm that forms outside of the tropics, but has many of the characteristics—hurricane-force winds, driving rains, low pressure, and sometimes an eye—of a tropical storm. Although it arrived several weeks shy of the official start of the hurricane season (June 1), Subtropical Storm Andrea became the first named storm of the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season. The storm has the circular shape of a tropical cyclone in this image, but lacks the tight organization seen in more powerful storms. By May 9, the storm's winds reached 75 kilometers per hour (45 miles per hour), and the storm was not predicted to get any stronger, said the National Hurricane Center. [ http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/index.shtml? ] Though Subtropical Storm Andrea was expected to remain offshore, its strong winds and high waves pummeled coastal states, prompting a tropical storm watch. The winds fueled wild fires [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14251 ] (marked with red boxes) in Georgia and Florida. The wind-driven flames generated thick plumes of smoke that concentrated in a gray-brown mass over Tampa Bay, Florida. Unfortunately for Georgia and Florida, which are experiencing moderate to severe drought, Subtropical Storm Andrea was not predicted to bring significant rain to the region right away, according to reports [ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/09/AR2007050900917.html ] on the Washington Post Website.

Fires in the Southern United States |
| Description |
On March 20, 2007, the southern United States was scattered with numerous fires. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite captured this photo-like image and fire detections, which are marked with red dots. Some of the fire detections appear only as "hotspots," places where MODIS detected unusually high temperatures, while other fires are producing obvious smoke plumes. An especially smoky group of fires was occurring near the Florida-Georgia state line. According to the March 20 daily situation report from the Southern Area Coordination Center [ http://gacc.nifc.gov/sacc/about/about.htm ] of the National Interagency Fire Center, the majority of the fires in the Southern United States so far this year have been human-caused (accidental, arson, or prescribed) rather than lightning-caused. At the time of this image, most of the large fires being monitored by the Southern Area Coordination Center were prescribed fires—fires set intentionally by forest service or other land managers to improve vegetation conditions or reduce the risk of fire later in the season. The large image provided above has a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 500 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides twice-daily [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/ ] images of the United States (and other parts of the world) as a subset of individual images in a variety or resolutions.

Tropical Storm Barry
| Title |
Tropical Storm Barry |
| Description |
The official start of the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season on June 1 was marked by the formation of Tropical Storm Barry in the Gulf of Mexico, the second named storm of the season. Instead of being destructive, however, Barry delivered some much-needed rain to Florida and parts of the Southeast, which were suffering from severe drought conditions and numerous wild fires. This image shows rainfall totals along the storm's path from May 31 through June 4, 2007. The highest rainfall totals were on the order of 100?150 millimeters (4?6 inches). These areas of heavy rain over south-central Florida and east-central Georgia are marked in red. Lesser amounts of rain, on the order of 50 to 75 millimeters (2?3 inches, green to yellow areas), fell over most of peninsular Florida, the eastern half of Georgia and North and South Carolina. Despite the beneficial rains, most of the area remained in a drought. The rainfall measurements shown here are from the Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis, which is based on measurements taken by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite (TRMM). [ http://trmm.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] TRMM provides valuable images and information on tropical cyclones around the tropics using a combination of passive microwave and active radar sensors, including the first precipitation radar in space. TRMM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency, JAXA. NASA image produced by Hal Pierce (SSAI/NASA GSFC). Caption provided by Steve Lang (SSAI/NASA GSFC). |

2001 Mars Odyssey Turns 5 |
| Description |
Five years after leaving Florida for Mars, NASA's Mars Odyssey spacecraft is still orbiting the red planet, collecting scientific data and relaying communications from NASA's two Mars rovers to Earth. Images such as this spectacular, color view of sun-bathed, layered escarpments and wind-scalloped, basalt dunes in the solar system's largest canyon continue to beckon space explorers and guide the way for future missions. Basaltic dunes are common on Mars but rare on Earth. Rounded knobs and mesas on the canyon floor are reminiscent of desert geology in the southwestern U.S. A team led by Phil Christensen, principal investigator for Odyssey's cameras at Arizona State University, Jim Bell at Cornell University, and space artist Don Davis created this panorama. They added color to radiance files from the Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS), a camera on Odyssey that takes images in both the visible and infrared parts of the spectrum. They correlated the radiance - intensity of reflected sunlight - with that of other color images from Mars and mimimized the effects of residual scattered light in the images. In addition to producing images such as this, Mars Odyssey has made global observations of Martian climate, geology, and mineralogy. The spacecraft's Gamma Ray Spectrometer has allowed scientists to make maps of the elemental distribution of hydrogen, silicon, iron, potassium, thorium, and chlorine on the Martian surface. A global map of minerals associated with water, essential to life as we know it, guided NASA in its selection of Meridiani Planum, the landing site for NASA's Opportunity rover, an area rich in hematite. Odyssey is currently supporting landing site selection for the Phoenix Scout Mission, to be launched in 2007, using data showing that surface areas near the poles of Mars consist of more than 50 percent water ice by volume. Other Odyssey accomplishments include measurement of radiation, a prerequisite for future human exploration because of its potential health effects, and a groundbreaking program in education outreach that has allowed students to take pictures of Mars and conduct scientific investigations with cameras on Odyssey. Mars Odyssey was launched April 7, 2001 on a Delta II rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, and reached Mars on October 24, 2001. Odyssey employed a technique called "aerobraking" that used the atmosphere of Mars to slow down and gradually bring the spacecraft closer to Mars with each orbit. Odyssey's science mapping mission began in February 2002. The primary science mission continued through August 2004. Odyssey is currently in its extended mission.
