This image, also obtained using NASA's new thermal-imaging sensor, is a 3-D perspective of the Harris fire. The fire can be seen burning on both sides of the ridge. The data is once again displayed in an array of colors: the fire's hot, active spots are yellow; warm areas that were recently burned are shades of red; and areas that are cooling are blue.

With the 2007 hurricane season under way, scientists believe their new forecasting model will make more-accurate predictions, thereby saving lives.
Researchers are working on a system that allows sensors to track information and create up-to-date, searchable online maps.
Manufacturing in the United States is in trouble. That's bad news not just for the country's economy but for the future of innovation.
This document is part of the “How-To Guide for Most Common Measurements” centralized resource portal. This tutorial provides a detailed guide for measurement and device considerations to take temperature measurements using thermocouples. Get an introduction to thermocouples, which are inexpensive sensing devices widely used with PC-based data acquisition systems. Also review some specific thermocouple examples and learn how thermocouples work and ways to integrate them into a data acquisition measurement system.
