14
00:00:31,830 --> 00:00:29,519
nasa science writer i write about earth

15
00:00:33,190 --> 00:00:31,840
science and satellite missions including

16
00:00:37,590 --> 00:00:33,200
landsat

17
00:00:39,670 --> 00:00:37,600
earth for almost 50 years

18
00:00:41,590 --> 00:00:39,680
not like pictures that your phone takes

00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:41,600
these are technically images created

20
00:00:46,709 --> 00:00:44,640
from encoded bits of data

21
00:00:49,110 --> 00:00:46,719
from space we can see changes to the

22
00:00:51,270 --> 00:00:49,120
amazon rainforest growing cities like

23
00:00:53,670 --> 00:00:51,280

hi nasa i would like to

31
00:01:15,510 --> 00:01:10,840
ask you a

32
00:01:16,789 --> 00:01:15,520
question what is under the surface of a

33
00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:16,799
volcano

34
00:01:20,950 --> 00:01:19,200
that's a great question lots of times

35
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:20,960
there is a chamber of lava under the

36
00:01:26,070 --> 00:01:23,439
surface of a volcano here's a picture

37
00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:26,080

00:01:30,789 --> 00:01:28,720
hawaii as it's erupting with our special

39
00:01:32,950 --> 00:01:30,799
technology on landsat we can see the

40
00:01:34,550 --> 00:01:32,960
heat coming out of the volcano

41
00:01:37,190 --> 00:01:34,560
here's an image of mount st helen's

42
00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:37,200
landsat took in 1979

43
00:01:41,270 --> 00:01:39,200
and here's the same volcano right after

44
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:41,280
it erupted in 1980

45
00:01:45,830 --> 00:01:43,200
look how the blast from the explosion

46
00:01:48,069 --> 00:01:45,840
knocked down the surrounding trees

47
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:48,079

49
00:01:53,350 --> 00:01:51,840
would like to explore what other changes

50
00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:53,360

00:01:56,230 --> 00:01:54,479
