Death Valley Through Landsat’s First Lens (Landsat 1, )

USGS

Landsat 1 captured this false-color image of Death Valley on May 27, 1976. At the center lies Furnace Creek, a key landmark in one of the hottest and driest places on Earth. The bright whites in the valley floor represent salt flats, while red tones indicate sparse desert vegetation.
