title: Space shuttle: a new era in terrestrial remote sensing.
abstract: The space shuttle will carry its first scientific cargo into orbit on its second test flight. The seven experiments to be conducted during this flight-investigations related to continental geology, atmospheric chemistry, meteorology, marine biology, and plant physiology-will demonstrate the potential usefulness of the shuttle for research in the earth and life sciences.
