Swipe to see this image embroidered! This image of canola in bloom near Regina, Saskatchewan in Canada was captured by the Operational Land Imager on Landsat 8 on July 23, 2019. And, it was later embroidered by Goddard social media specialist Katy Mersmann. One of Katy’s hobbies is embroidery and for inspiration, she uses climate and Earth science data. Today, we’re celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth with this fun combination of work and play. “I think there’s a really cool confluence between traditionally women’s crafts and also the STEM fields. I love embroidering something and sending pictures of it to one of the scientists I work with being like, ‘Hey! I put your data in fabric.’
