Imagine that you're orbiting the Earth aboard the International Space Station. What if you could access a heads-up display, offering multiple views of the planet below, as seen through the eyes of NASA's fleet of Earth observation satellites? This stunning simulation reveals what it could look like.
NASA's Scientific Visualization Studio created this video for a special evening event at Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum. Several Earth scientists from Goddard Space Flight Center were speakers at the conference, titled "Vital Signs: Taking the Pulse of Our Planet."
This animation was used to illustrate the interconnectedness of the many Earth-based data sets that NASA has produced over the last decade.
