The Long Swath

Thursday, May 16, 2013

Great post from the NASA Earth Observatory Image of the Day - this is 9000km swatch running from Russia all the way down through Africa offering stunning images along the route. It was captured shortly after the calibration and testing of LDCM completed and it was moved into its operational orbit - note its not due to enter full operational status until late May. Watch the video FULL SCREEN. It is stunning.

And check out further details of “The Long Swath” which includes a fabulous GigaPan at full resolution.
