NASA has broken the internet with its newly released images of Earth from space.
The satellite image was compiled from the CCD camera and telescope appropriately called the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera – or EPIC for short.
The image itself its composed by using three separate images, each with their own scientific properties that – when joined together – create the most spectacular image of earth.
EPIC will provide the ability for real-time, daily studies into the variations of earth’s atmosphere – for the first time.
In time, NASA will set up a website that streams the images straight to a real-time gallery and we will get to marvel at the beauty of the world all over again.
