Harvey Goldstein, chairman of Harvest International, Inc., in Indonesia, serves as an investment advisor to Fortune 100 companies. In addition to his current work of handling client investments in Indonesia, during his earlier career, as a scientist, Harvey Goldstein’s professional background included the development of the navigational systems for the very first Nimbus weather satellite.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA's) Nimbus satellite has played a large role in increasing scientific knowledge about weather, atmosphere, and oceanography on Earth. The first Nimbus, which was launched in 1964, provided scientists and meteorologists with the most extensive photographs of clouds and weather systems seen to that point.
The most recent Nimbus satellite, Nimbus 7, provided ozone, ocean, and global weather data for 16 years, up until 1994. Over the decades, this important weather satellite has contributed to a variety of goals, from hurricane forecasting to search and rescue operations. NASA has now transferred the Nimbus technology to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to aid in the operation of its satellites.
