Animation of the Landsat 8 (formerly known as LDCM, the Landsat Data Continuity Mission) spacecraft in orbit around the Earth. The satellite will travel at 7.5 km/second, circling the globe every 99 minutes at an altitude of 438 miles. LDCM will image a swath 185 km in width and complete about 14 orbits each day, thereby imaging Earth's land every 16 days.
