Terrain Elevation | NASA Earthdata NASA's terrain elevation data measure current height and changes in land altitude and are useful for creating digital elevation models
What is the altitude of the International Space Station? This altitude allows the ISS to remain in a stable orbit while still being close enough for supply missions and crew rotations The ISS travels at a speed of about 28,000 kilometers per hour
Does humidity change with altitude - Answers Altitude is primarily based on air pressure, not temperature and humidity Additional information, such as air pressure or location, would be needed to accurately determine altitude
Air Mass Density | NASA Earthdata Dry air is referred to as air from which measurable amounts of water vapor have been physically removed Pure, dry air has a density of 1 293 kg m−3 at a temperature of 273 K and a pressure of 101 325 kPa Apart from the variability of water vapor, the composition of air is essentially constant to an altitude of at least 50 km
SRTM | NASA Earthdata Used to gather topographic (elevation) data of Earth's surface, NASA's SRTM used interferometry
OpenAltimetry | NASA Earthdata NASA’s OpenAltimetry is a free and powerful map-based data visualization and discovery tool for exploring surface elevation profiles from the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) and ICESat platform mission altimetry data
Contrails | NASA Earthdata Contrails are human-induced clouds that usually form at very high altitudes (usually above 8 km - about 26,000 ft) where the air is extremely cold (less than -40ºC) Because of this, contrails form not when an airplane is taking off or landing, but while it is at cruise altitude (Exceptions occur i
Remote Sensing | NASA Earthdata Platforms orbiting at 35,786 km are at an altitude at which their orbital speed matches the planet's rotation, and are in what is called geosynchronous orbit (GSO) In addition, a platform in GSO directly over the equator will have a geostationary orbit
