Suomi's Stunning View From Space

By Keith Cowing on January 26, 2012 11:19 AM.

Comments

Image: Suomi NPP's View of North America

"Suomi NPP's VIIRS instrument returned this hi-resolution full-disc image of the Earth from several passes made Jan. 4, 2012. The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) mission represents a critical first step in building the next-generation Earth-observing satellite system that will collect data on both long-term climate change and short-term weather conditions."
