Northern Asia and the Arctic
Northern Asia and the Arctic. Satellite image of the Earth centred on Siberia, with the North Pole at upper centre. Clouds and Arctic sea ice are white, oceans are blue and land is green and brown. Also seen are North America (top), the Pacific Ocean (upper right), Africa (lower left), Europe (left) and the Atlantic Ocean (upper left). This image was produced by combining data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), NOas POES and Nimbus 7 satellites and the MODIS instrument on board NASAs Terra satellite

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vastness and beauty of Northern Asia and the Arctic. From a satellite's perspective, we are presented with an awe-inspiring view of our planet Earth. The image is centered on Siberia, with the North Pole positioned at the upper center. The color palette in this photograph is strikingly vivid; clouds and Arctic sea ice appear as pristine white, while oceans shimmer in various shades of blue. Landmasses are depicted in lush green and earthy brown tones. As we explore further, other continents come into view - North America dominates the top portion, Africa can be seen towards the lower left corner, and Europe graces the left side. This remarkable composite image has been created by combining data from multiple sources including satellites such as Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), NOas POES, Nimbus 7, and NASAs Terra satellite equipped with MODIS instrument. These cutting-edge technologies enable us to observe our planet's topography, vegetation cover, cloud formations, icy landscapes, and even land usage patterns. Admiring this print evokes a sense of wonder about our world's diverse regions. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected all these places are despite their geographical distances. This stunning visual representation not only highlights Northern Asia's grandeur but also emphasizes humanity's ongoing efforts to study Earth science through advanced observation techniques provided by NASA and NOAA satellites.
