The DSCOVR Deep-Space Mission


February 12, 2015 / DSCOVR-EPIC Is Launched with SpaceX

GreenPolicy360 assists NASA's mission team

We/GreenPolicy360 are cooperating with NASA DSCOVR mission managers and will be delivering a stream of home planet imagery and data as NASA/NOAA begin uploading EPIC-cam and instrument 'pictures of home'!


Planet Citizens, Planet Scientists


The DSCOVR satellite with its EPIC cam, PlasMag & NISTAR instrument package is on the way... a million miles toward the Sun then 'parked' in orbit to send data of our Earth to us everyday on Earth, including the first Whole Earth photos taken since 1972.


DSCOVR with EPIC Cam


Sometimes it is worth stepping back and simply admiring Earth. It is a beautiful, awe-inspiring place, and it is the only world most of us will ever know. Of all celestial bodies within reach or view, as far as we can see, out to the edge, the most wonderful and marvelous and mysterious is turning out to be our own planet earth. There is nothing to match it anywhere, not yet anyway. — Lewis Thomas


The Earth science data will be processed at NASA’s DSCOVR Science Operations Center and archived and distributed by NASA’s Atmospheric Science Data Center. Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC)

EarthPOV

For GreenPolicy360, the centerpiece of the mission will be the EPIC cam images of Earth 360

First whole earth pictures to be delivered from deep space since 1972 -- images we are looking to share as a life message of our home planet

Planet Citizens we are -- together

NASA's DSCOVR Mission
GreenPolicy360's in on the Mission


GreenPolicy360 stepped up as Planet Citizens to assist the NASA/NOAA team to deliver the first DSCOVR/EPIC data and imagery

NASA's DSCOVR/EPIC website of Earth images is now being made available online daily...

Unprecedented accompanying data and imagery made available open source for ‪#‎EarthScience‬ and climate/atmospheric monitoring.

NASA Goddard communications to us, including this March 11th correspondence with GreenPolicy360, discussed calibrated data products to come from DSCOVR...

The individual 10 different wavelength EPIC data will be (and is now being) served from the Atmospheric Science Data Center (ASDC) at Langley.

Welcome to Daily Views of Our Home Planet


The DSCOVR satellite with its EPIC cam, PlasMag & NISTAR instrument package... is on a million mile journey and in approx four months, DSCOVR will "light up", be tested, and begin delivering data to Earth. In its historic mission, DSCOVR and its EPIC imaging system will begin sending near real-time images of the whole Earth... it has been many years since whole Earth images have been readily available...
