Image of the blue marble 2002 much of the information contained in this image came from a single remote sensing device nasa s moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer or modis. In 2002 nasa produced the blue marble the most detailed true color image of the earth s surface ever produced. In 2002 nasa scientists and visualizers stitched together strips of brand new data in natural color collected over four months from the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer or modis instrument aboard terra.

Nasa s earth observatory. Blue marble 2002 source. Our team is purely about communications. Next generation offers greater spatial detail of the surface and spans a longer data collection period than the original.

By 2002 we finally had enough data to make a snap shot of the entire earth. The original blue marble was a composite of four months of modis observations. The hard part was creating a flat map of the earth s surface with four. To learn more about the development of nasa s imagery of the earth as a whole read the history of the blue marble.

Nasa s cassini spacecraft obtained this raw. This spectacular blue marble image is the most detailed true color image of the entire earth to date. Using data from nasa s terra satellite scientists and data visualizers stitched together four months of observations of the land surface coastal oceans sea ice and clouds into a seamless photo like mosaic of every square.
