Here is a real-time full color view of the Earth from the Himawari satellite, updated every half hour or so. This geostationary weather satellite is stationed over the longitude of Japan. The view is complete with orange sunglint off the ocean. You can click on the link to see the latest update.
http://www.jma.go.jp/en/gms/largec.html?ar...=1&mode=UTC I previously posted this high resolution sample image in the Whole Earth Images thread. We can look around for the full resolution real-time data archive that would be about 11000 pixels wide. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]

OK...this is really strange. The Flickr BBCode submitted to each post has quotations added to the Flickr url portion which then kills the link. I have been manually editing them to get the working links back.
eg: this... url=https://flic.kr/p/27MSyyN becomes this... url="https://flic.kr/p/27MSyyN" Problem is that this doesn't appear to be consistent and I now wonder how many of my posts suffer this error with the resulting broken link. *the links with quotes now appear to be working so it could be a problem at the Flickr end* -------------------- |
