Here is a link to Fourmilab's VIEW FROM SATELLITE:


Simply choose a satellite from the scroll box and click on VIEW EARTH FROM SATELLITE button and see a recent image of the earth from different perspectives. Click on image to zoom. See the city lights at night over the U.S. or Eastern China!

The satellite database is updated regularly but may not reflect the current position of satellites, such as the U.S. Space Shuttle, which maneuver frequently after reaching orbit.

After choosing a view you can enlarge the image by increasing the number of pixels from the bottom of the page.
