Thanks for posting this article.
And I did go and read it in it’s entirety.
It was really worth spending the time to read all 5 pages.
Everyone should.
We have been contacted by Dave Gallaher of the National Snow and Ice science data center in Boulder Colorado concerning our work to line up the scan lines of our images. The early Nimbus prototype climate spacecraft used a method similar to our own to record and reconstruct images. If the Snow and Ice Data Center can reconstruct the Nimbus images from the 1960's this will push our satellite based polar icecap information from 1979 back another 13 years, providing a significant increase in the quality of climate data.There is a possibility that the Nimbus spacecraft imaged the polar regions of the earth on the exact same day and near the same time as our now famous lunar orbiter image of the Earth as seen from the Moon. We have one image from them that is only a couple of weeks older than the August 23, 1966 image of the Earth that we have reconstructed. If the Snow and Ice Center has an image from the same day, the possibility exists to generate a global cloud cover image of the earth from that day, which would be the oldest image of this type. This will have a value to the science community as the mid 1960's was the depth of a global cooling climate interlude that is very sparsely known from the remote sensing and climate science perspective.
BTW, Wingo is a bigtime global warming skeptic.
