Features: This book contains a large number of remote sensing images and data tables. The original images are all digital, clear and exquisite, with collectible value. The development of remote sensing has spanned nearly four decades since the 1960s, evolving from aerial remote sensing to satellite remote sensing and then to spaceborne remote sensing. Spaceborne remote sensing is characterized by its use of spacecraft as the carrier, with the mission of detecting planets and their moons in the solar system, naturally including the Earth and its moon. This popular science book explains the principles, missions, applications, achievements, and future directions of spaceborne remote sensing in layman's terms. It also discusses current hot topics that people are concerned about, such as "Viewing the Great Wall from Space" and "Lunar Exploration." Therefore, it serves as a valuable reference book for broadening knowledge and accumulating resources for a wide range of readers, including teenagers, middle and high school students, college students, teachers, office workers, the elderly, as well as organizers, managers, and intermediate-level technical personnel in the field of remote sensing.
