The most detailed image of the Earth ever!

in #investments8 years ago

A new image taken by the Russian weather satellite, Elektro-L is giving us a different perspective of the Earth. Unlike the “Blue Marble” images common to NASA-taken images, where multiple photos are snapped from several flybys stitched together , this 121-megapixel image managed to capture the Earth in a single shot.

Unlike anything we’ve ever seen, the weather satellite’s image used data based on wavelengths of visible and infrared light—a technique that turns vegetation into a rusty red hue is very prominent in the shot.
