NASA哥达德空间飞行中心的工程技术人员已经完成了陆地卫星—5的调整和激活工作,于1984年4月6日将卫星工作控制移交给美国大气海洋管理局(NOAA)。陆地卫星-5是在同年3月1日从范登堡空军发射基地射入轨道的,通过一系列机动,卫星已运行在一条高度为705公里的近极地轨道上,卫星入轨后,NASA的技术人员对星上计算机、通信、遥测以及其他系统进行了 Engineers at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center completed the satellite terrestrial satellite-5 adjustment and activation and hand over satellite job control to the U.S. Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration (NOAA) on April 6, 1984. Landsat-5 was launched into orbit from the Vandenberg Air Force launch site on March 1 of the same year. Through a series of maneuvers, the satellites have been operating on a nearly polar orbit at a height of 705 km. After the satellites orbit, NASA’s Technicians performed on-board computers, communications, telemetry, and other systems
