Images Of Earth

NASA's Mars Perseverance rover has unveiled intriguing findings at Serpentine Rapids, a location characterised by its striking red rocks interspersed with distinctive green spots. These features, observed in a nighttime mosaic captured by the rover's SHERLOC WATSON camera, may provide insights into Mars' geological history. The green spots are thou...

NASA's Perseverance rover recently captured a stunning solar eclipse on Mars, showcasing the moon Phobos as it partially blocked the sun. This remarkable event, photographed on September 30, 2024, was made possible by the rover's Left Mastcam-Z camera, which highlighted Phobos's irregular shape. Measuring about 17 miles long and orbiting Mars at a ...

The NISAR Mission 2025, a joint effort between NASA and ISRO, aims to observe Earth's surface, ecosystems, and track environmental changes. The satellite will use cutting-edge radar technology to collect data on biomass, natural disasters, and sea-level rise. Scheduled to launch in 2025, NISAR will be a vital tool for global climate and ecosystem m...

The Hubble Space Telescope has unveiled a stunning image of the spiral galaxy NGC 5248, also known as Caldwell 45, located 42 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Boötes. Known for its prominent spiral arms and intense star formation, NGC 5248 boasts two active nuclear rings, making it a fascinating subject for both professional and...

Asteroid 2024 ON, a large, two-lobed object, passed safely by Earth on Sept. 17, 2024. Resembling a snowman in shape, the asteroid’s radar images were captured by NASA’s Goldstone Solar System Radar. Despite being classified as a potentially hazardous asteroid, 2024 ON did not pose a threat to Earth, passing at a distance of over 620,000 miles....

Google Street View has received one of its biggest updates in recent years. It is now available in nearly 80 countries, some of which have Street View imagery for the first time ever. The feature, available on Google Earth and Maps, stitches together billions of panoramic images to provide street-level views which users can access from home.

Historically, the Sahara was once covered in vegetation and lakes between 11,000 and 5,000 years ago

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) recently announced the start of operations for its Electro Optical-Infrared (EOIR) payload placed inside the EOS-08 Earth Observation Satellite. The satellite was launched on the space agency's Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) on August 16. The main goal of this mission is to improve India's therma...

The city dubbed as The New Administrative Capital (NAC) will be a sprawling metropolis, comparable in size to Singapore, and designed to accommodate over 6 million residents.

The now-viral image shows a beautiful sight of the heavenly body with blue hues in the foreground from clouds and the earth's atmosphere.

Europe's JUICE (Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer) spacecraft achieved a significant milestone on August 19, 2024, by performing a historic gravity assist flyby of the Moon. This manoeuvre brought JUICE within approximately 465 miles (750 kilometres) of the lunar surface. The spacecraft captured images during this encounter using its onboard cameras, desi...

ESA’s Φsat-2 satellite was launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base, marking a significant advancement in Earth observation technology. This cutting-edge CubeSat is designed to push the boundaries of how artificial intelligence can enhance space-based monitoring. Equipped with a state-of-the-art multispectral cam...

NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick, aboard the International Space Station, recently captured an extraordinary image of the Russian Soyuz spacecraft with a vibrant green aurora in the background. The photograph, taken during Expedition 71 in 2024, showcases the breathtaking beauty of space and the fascinating interplay between solar activity and Earth...

The picture, taken from the International Space Station (ISS) orbiting 267 miles above the Pacific Ocean, shows the breathtaking moment when a new day dawns on our planet.

While describing the scene, the astronaut said, "A sliver of a moon rises out of noctilucent clouds and appears to look towards the horizon awaiting the imminent sunrise."
