sensing techniques are de-

&M’s Remote Sensing Center
dlieves.
Dr. John W. Rouse Jr. told the
jnerican Society of Photogram-
letry seminar in Houston Wed-
esday “it is difficult to imagine

ion standards for industries and
minicipal governments without

He said the middle ground be-

industrialists’ need to economical

most likely to be found using air
borne sensors than by any other
means.
Dr. Rouse chairs the Environ
mental Monitoring Panel at the
Tuesday through Friday meeting.
He warned seminar participants
remote sensing experts were over
due “in combining our remote
sensor technology and our space
travel capabilities to enable us to
begin appraisal of this critical is
sue.”
He said environmentalists have
a strong argument that the ecol

cally evaluate the dynamics of
urban water pollution using only
measurements obtained from the
bow of a ship,” he declared. “Nor
can we understand the complexity
of a city’s air pollution problem
using only instruments mounted
on towers or in balloons.”
Dr. Rouse claimed environment
researchers will begin to appre
ciate the multiple factors associ
ated with environmental quality
by observing them from aircraft
and satellite altitudes.
“Using airplanes equipped with
modem remote sensing instru
ments, we have the potential for
recording very necessary infor
mation about the input and diffu
sion of pollutants in rivers, lakes,
estuaries, bays and in the air
over large cities,” Dr. Rouse said.
He noted the U. S. motivation
for pollution control is a desire
for an “attractive environment.”
The more profound issue of en
vironmental degradation is not
simply regional or national, but
global in nature, he added.
Dr. Rouse also said the prob
lems cannot be handled by any one
nation and aircraft sensors used
on a regional problem has no more
effect than the pollution instru
ments aboard ships.
His contention is that space and
remote sensing technology must
be brought together to give a
global overview of the problem.
“We cannot hope to understand
this complex problem any other
way,” Dr. Rouse advised.

Earth probably had several
small moons, scientists say
SAN DIEGO, Calif. <A>) — Two
scientists say the earth may once
have had five to 10 small moons
that were destroyed after the
present moon was formed in space
and was drawn into orbit of the
earth.
“The only likely possibility is
that the moon swept out the space
occupied by these original satel
lites, either colliding with them
or forcing them from their nor
mal orbits. In the latter case, the
satellites would either have col
lided with earth or been ejected
into remote space,” .they, said.

nautics and Space Administration

The scientists said they based
their theory on a study of the
evolution of other planets and
their satellites.
Saturn, Jupiter and Uranus fol

NASA’s Manned Spacecraft
Center in Houston has awarded
the A&M Remote Sensing Center
a $15,000 contract for continuation
of airborne radar data studies.
Dr. John W. Rouse Jr., center
director and principal investiga
tor, said the objective is to de
velop means of remote sensing
soil moisture conditions in support
of hydrological studies.
Hydrology is the science deal
ing with properties, distribution
and circulation of water on land
surface, in soil and underlying
rocks and in the atmosphere.
Previous studies of radar data
have shown it provides informa
tion for determination of sea sur
face conditions, such as wave
height or sea ice types, Dr. Rouse
pointed out.
The research supports the
NASA/MSC Earth Resources Air
craft Program which records
sensing information throughout
the U. S. and in several foreign
countries.
A&M’s work will define the
utility, quality and potential ap
plication of the radar data for
scientific analysis. The contract
also supports development of com
puter models to predict the radar
return from various Texas soil
types.
