A Year in the Life of Earth: A Cosmic Perspective From a million miles away, NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory has been our cosmic eye, capturing the sunlit side of our planet 13 to 22 times a day since 2015. Imagine the vastness of the stratosphere, its protective ozone layers, and the intricate dance of clouds sweeping across the globe. EPIC's constant watch has allowed scientists like Adam Szabo, Alexander Marshak, and Jay Herman at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to unlock the secrets of our atmosphere. Their research unveils not only the beauty of Earth but the intricate processes that sustain life. Beyond the atmosphere, EPIC's unique vantage point reveals the vibrant health of our planet's vegetation and the delicate shimmer of ice crystals in the air—each observation a vital piece in understanding our climate and environment. These insights, brought to life by the artistry of animators and visualizers like Kayvon Sharghi and Joycelyn Thomson Jones, are more than scientific achievements; they are a testament to the interconnectedness of our world. As we witness this year in the life of Earth, let us remember our responsibility in shaping its future. Join the conversation on climate action and environmental stewardship. #inergency, #egreenews, and #Evideosecurity #NASA #hugihernandez If you like our posts you should probably follow and connect with Hugo Hernandez, Founder of Egreenews: https://lnkd.in/ghpRPupC
