We are proud to report that NASA has renewed its sponsorship of Odyssey of the Mind. The Jungle Bloke is the sixth problem it has sponsored and is sure to be a hit. The Earth-Sun System Mission Program has graciously provided useful learning materials about some of the applications of satellite imagery. These can be found in all membership packets and their website. To view this satellite imagery and to explore other interesting tools and information visit NASA's website: www.earthobservatory.nasa.gov/odysseyofthemind. These satellite images allow anyone to view remote corners of the world, and to view changes that are occurring on earth. For example, participants can view places like the Virunga National Forest and the other jungles featured in The Jungle Bloke. NASA's Landsat 7 is the most recent satellite in the Landsat series. It circles the globe collecting data and generating 250 high-resolution pictures per day. |
