There are 2 instruments on Landsat 9 to collect all the science data. The Operational Land Imager 2 collects light, and works kind of like our eyes — or cameras — to make data-rich images. The Thermal Infrared Sensor 2 measures temperature, helping monitor plant health, fires, and more. From the series “9 Things About Landsat 9” https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13917
