The Earth Observing-1 Mission (EO-1) satellite is part of NASA’s New Millennium Program (NMP) to develop and validate a number of instrument and spacecraft bus breakthrough technologies designed to enable the development of future earth imaging observatories that will have a significant increase in performance while also having reduced cost and mass.Its Advanced Land Imager (ALI) measures nine different wavelengths simultaneously instead of the seven measured by the imager in Landsat 7.
