Dr. Otto Berg ( 1917-2017 ) was responsible for the first color photographs of the Earth taken from space.
Dr. Berg was working at the Naval Research Laboratory ( NRL ) in New Mexico .
The Aerobee was originally designed and built for NRL by the Aerojet Engineering Corporation (which today is part of Aerojet Rocketdyne ).
First of its kind color mosaic of the Earth as seen from space captured a spiral shaped tropical system over the Big Bend region of Texas .
The system started as a tropical depression off the coast of Cuba on October 2, 1954 and slowly moved westward over the Gulf of Mexico .
Analysis of these images once again proved the value of imaging storms from space providing a vital prelude to the first weather satellite to be launched just 5 years later .
