  1. This new image of the Earth at night is a composite assembled from data acquired by the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) satellite over nine days in April 2012 and thirteen days in October 2012. It took 312 orbits and 2.5 terabytes of data to get a clear shot of every parcel of Earth's land surface...

  2. This panorama is a mosaic of images taken by the Mast Camera (Mastcam) on the NASA Mars rover Curiosity while the rover was working at a site called "Rocknest" in October and November 2012. The center of the scene, looking eastward from Rocknest, includes the Point Lake area. After the component images for this scen...

  3. This image of Earth’s city lights was created with data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System (OLS) from October, 1994 - March, 1995. Originally designed to view clouds by moonlight, the OLS is also used to map the locations of permanent lights on the Earth’s surface. ...

  4. NASA's Blue Marble: Next Generation offers greater spatial detail of the surface and spans a longer data collection period than the original. The original Blue Marble was a composite of four months of MODIS observations with a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 1 square kilometer per pixel. Blue Marble: Next Gener...

  5. Original Caption Released with Image: This 360-degree view, called the "McMurdo" panorama, comes from the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit. From April through October 2006, Spirit stayed on a small hill known as "Low Ridge." There, the rover's solar panels were tilted toward the sun to...

  6. On Sol 84 (Oct. 31, 2012), NASA's Curiosity rover used the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) to capture this set of 55 high-resolution images, which were stitched together to create this full-color self-portrait. The mosaic shows the rover at "Rocknest," the spot in Gale Crater where the mission's first scoop sampling t...

  8. Here is the 360 degree view at "Rocknest" in Gale Crater, Mars, stitched together from 270 individual 1200x1200px frames shot between Sols 64 and 72 (October 10th to 24th, 2012) by by the Mastcam 100mm camera aboard NASA/JPL's Mars Science Laboratory rover "Curiosity". The Mars Science Laboratory Project and its Curio...

  9. The panorama is made with about 110 single frames taken on SOL54, SOL60 and SOL64 using the MASTCAM 34mm camera while the rover was involved in sand sampling activities. This bedrock site was named by NASA Curiosity team as "Rocknest". Maybe in the next days new frames has to come, and I'll update the pananorama. ...

  10. MSL Curiosity is a NASA rover landed on Mars on August 5th 2012. This is the first hi-res color panorama taken with Mastcam 34mm camera. The panorama is made with 140 single frames taken on SOL3 and SOL13 before the rover moves away. The sky and the Sun are not real: I added them with photoshop. NASA names Curiosity ...
