2. What is Direct Broadcast? NASA Data streamed in real-time from the satellite to the earth as soon as the data are collected. What is Direct Readout? Data collected by a satellite dish in real-time from a satellite travelling overhead.

9. How is this different from “normal” data? NASA image NASA Aqua Example Aqua circles the earth 14 times a day. Data for an entire orbit is stored on the satellite and then dumped down to two main ground stations as the satellite passes over them: Poker Flat, Alaska Svalbard, Norway An entire orbit of data is then sent to NASA for processing. These data are not available in real-time.
