Terra is the flagship of NASA’s Earth Observing System (EOS) series of satellites, and launched on December 18, 1999, with 340 kilograms of hydrazine fuel and a straightforward mission: Gather data to better understand how Earth is changing and to identify the consequences for life on Earth due to these changes. The YouTube video at right was creat...
“Not many people get to go to work and fly a spaceship for a living,” says Terra Mission Director Dimitrios Mantziaras. Mantziaras oversees the day-to-day operations of the Terra platform, including making sure all systems are working. And a major part of mission operations is fuel management. Terra left Earth with a full tank of hydrazine, but it ...
Someday over the next several years, probably after Terra exits the science constellation, NASA Headquarters will send a letter to the Terra mission operations and science teams that it’s time to initiate Phase F and terminate the mission. Like all NASA missions, Terra has a formal plan for Phase F that is constantly updated to ensure proper steps ...
Data preservation is a critical aspect of Phase F. Even after the end of the mission, all Terra data will continue to be archived, enhanced, maintained, and available without restriction through NASA’s EOSDIS. “Terra has great quality data,” says Thome. “While there might be some newer instruments, they can’t collect data in 1999.” Thome further ob...
Thome conservatively estimates that more than 5,000 people have been involved in Terra, many of whom, like himself and several of the instrument leads, have been part of the mission since the beginning. This does not include the millions of global data users who constantly download Terra data products using NASA Earthdata Search, cite Terra data in...

Aug 26, 2021 · Terra Firma's solar array produces over 19,000 kWh of clean electricity a year, offsetting 30,000 pounds of carbon - the equivalent to planting 230 trees. It directly offsets electricity used by the farm, and any excess energy goes to John's house to power his two air source heat pumps for heating and cooling.
