definition
  • Landsat 3 is the third satellite of the Landsat program. It was launched on March 5th, 1978, with the primary goal of providing a global archive of satellite photos. Unlike later Landsats, Landsat 3 was managed solely by NASA. Landsat 3 is no longer in operation, due to technical failure. It finally ceased transmission on March 21st 1983, far beyond its designed life expectancy of one year. Landsat 3 had essentially the same design as Landsat 2. It carried a Multi-Spectral Scanner, which had a maximum 75m resolution. Unlike the previous two Landsat missions a thermal band was built into Landsat 3, but this instrument failed shortly after the satellite was deployed. [2] Landsat 3 was placed into a polar orbit at about 920 kilometers, and took 18 days to cover the entire Earth's surface.
