Shown below is a collection of famous NASA images that are often called "satellite photos of Earth at night." They aren't really "photos". Instead, they are images that were compiled using data from a sensor aboard NASA’s Suomi satellite. Each white dot on the maps represents the light...
The new, higher resolution composite image of Earth at night was released at a news conference at theAmerican Geophysical Unionmeeting in San Francisco. This and other VIIRS day-night band images are providing researchers with valuable data for a wide variety of previously unseen or poorly seen e...
Screenshot of Iowa State University Overlays in Google Earth's sidebar. This Google Earth file contains satellite overlays from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet (IEM) at Iowa State University. It contains imagery from GOES-East (GOES-16) and GOES-West (GOES-18). Iowa State University Overlays...
most of which cannot be seen from Earth, is called the far side or "dark side" of the moon. This term doesn't refer to darkness but rather to the mystery shrouding the moon's largely unexplored terrain.
The datasets in this paper are four remote sensing images in the visible spectral band taken by CCD cameras from the Chinese HJ-1A/1B satellites dedicated to Earth observation for environmental and disaster monitoring. Both HJ-1A and HJ-1B carry two CCD cameras, which are capable of multispec...
23. Night View How does Earth look like at night? And what is the extent of human settlement on the landscape? By stitching 400+ images from space, NASA had compiled the most comprehensive night view in itsblack marble map. As seen in this night view map, major cities illuminate the sky...
derived from a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite ephemeris code (https://github.com/CLEOsat-group/satellite-tracking), and the exposure began 5 s before BW3 reached the predicted coordinates. Observations of BW3 were also obtained on the night of 10 November 2022 UT using the CTIO’s ...

Each satellite will represent a pixel in some image that can be seen from the Earth under appropriate illumination conditions [60]. The control of such a display is planned to be implemented using either onboard thrusters or using differential aerodynamic forces. This and the other recent ...
