About the AGU


AGU’s Fall Meeting is the largest Earth and space science meeting in the world.

The American Geophysical Union (AGU) is an international scientific society dedicated to promoting discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.

On those earth science satellites referred to by Andrew Revkin:


Governor Brown speaking to the scientists of the AGU...

"We got the scientists. We got the lawyers. And we're ready to fight. We're ready to defend. And California is no stranger to this fight... California is the future.

"We are pioneering space... Now some people say they're going to turn off the satellites that are monitoring the climate... low-earth phenomena, the LANDSAT and all the various measuring satellites that we have...


"Well, I remember back in 1978 I proposed a LANDSAT satellite for California. They called me 'Governor Moonbeam' because of that. I didn't get that moniker for nothing.

"And if Trump turns off the satellites, California will launch its own (d^mn) satellites!"


Steven J Schmidt / GreenPolicy360 Siterunner: A nod here to long-time friends Jerry Brown and George E. Brown. Congressman Brown was responsible for pushing the LANDSAT mission into existence, and for three decades shepherding in his oversight committee roles the earth science research programs in near-earth orbit from the 1970s onward to today .... what a unique and amazing record we now have, a treasure trove of data that we continue to use to understand and manage earth systems of life ....

Landsat Memories, Looking Back at the Beginning of the U.S. Earth Sciences Mission

Measuring and Monitoring Earth's Life System and Resources from Space

Envisioning Environmental Protection with 'Eyes in the Sky'


SJS/GreenPolicy360 Siterunner: The U.S. Interior Department, the U.S. Geological Survey, NASA with the Congressional Science and Technology Committee (originally the Science and Astronautics Committee were responsible for building the original Landsat program (which overcame much opposition within the military). ERTS-1, the Earth Resources Technology Satellite, as the original Landsat satellite was officially first called, was 'greenlighted' to go as a real time earth observation mission in 1970. The vast digital database it gathered has proven over the years the wisdom of the visionaries who first proposed, drafted legislation creating, funding, then engineering, testing, launching and ably defending the Landsat mission from critics over the decades. Now the results are being re-considered for the unique value they provide in guiding policy discussion, debate and decisions. The Landsat library of imagery, millions of images, multispectrum observations of change on earth over the first fifty years of the mission's existence, are seen in a new light.


In the late 1960s and early 70s, Congressman George Brown on the Science and Technology Committee was pressing forward with NASA's development of the first array of earth science satellite missions. Near the top of his list of project missions was LANDSAT 1.

Representative Brown was out in front of "Big Science". In his decades on the House Science, Space & Technology Committee, he worked to expand the reach of science. He knew that good data enabled good policy decisions. He pressed for first-generation earth science satellites and ongoing earth monitoring missions and data sharing.


George E. Brown Jr

GreenPolicy360 Siterunner: "Remembering my friend George"


Among his many initiatives, George Brown was a key figure in proposing, establishing, and then saving the Landsat program and its unique 'open-access' database of Earth Science imaging. Later, when President Reagan attempted to end the Landsat mission budget and shut the Landsat program down, George Brown intervened and led the opposition. Landsat's earth science technology continued to be a model for all earth science research missions from space and is now moving into its fifth decade with Landsat 9.


A salute to our friend Jerry as we rethink and reconsider the success of the LANDSAT generation and now, in the Governor's 4th term in office, a big THXS for Governor Brown reaching out to the PlanetLabs - Planet.com team...

  • Planet, signalling 'New Space' in California. Planet: “We’re going to be gaining insight into the changing planet in a way no one’s ever gotten before...”
