While some companies are big enough to own their own data centers, many rely on leasing space from the hundreds of landlords that have gotten into the business.
"Landsat is a centerpiece of NASA's Earth Science program, and today's successful launch will extend the longest continuous data record of Earth's surface as seen from space, " NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a statement.
He describes research using data from the largest terrestrial telescopes and from successive generations of space observatories.
The first maps not only record the three components but also compare their signals to the best available gravity field models assembled from existing space- and ground-acquired data-sets.
Using the first completed section of the NOvA neutrino detector, scientists have begun collecting data from cosmic rays-particles produced by a constant rain of atomic nuclei falling on the Earth's atmosphere from space .
But as the data from Pew shows, users have definitely taken notice that the space is less about socializing these days.

New analyses are based on the first 15.5 months of data from this mission, which is run principally by the European Space Agency.
This demand for new data has affected every other company in the medical space, from Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline to Amgen and Boston Scientific.
During the STS-134 mission, and for the first several months afterward, about 40 members of the AMS team monitored the experiment and analyzed the data it sent down from the Payload Operations Control Center at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston.

And new innovations such as printed circuit technology and the white space radio spectrum (transmitting data over unused TV channel airwaves as we switch from analogue to digital TV) are all helping to create a world where everything can talk to everything else, and everything to us.
From there, the data go to NASA's Payload Operations Integration Center at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala.

When combined, the data collected from the dishes will provide a level of detail some 10 times sharper than the Hubble Space Telescope.
The AMS is a particle detector that will use radiation from space to help ascertain conditions at the beginning of the universe as well as providing more data about its composition.
