Arabian Sea, satellite image
Arabian Sea. Satellite image of the Earth centred on the Arabian Sea and western India. Clouds and Arctic ice (top) are white, oceans are blue and land is green and brown. Also seen are East Asia (right), the Pacific Ocean (far right), Africa (left) and Europe (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 a satellite image of the Arabian Sea and western India, with an incredible level of detail. The Earth is beautifully centered on this vast body of water, revealing its stunning natural features. The clouds and Arctic ice at the top appear in striking white, while the oceans are depicted in varying shades of blue and the land in green and brown tones. The image provides a comprehensive view that extends beyond just this region. On the right side, East Asia can be observed, followed by the expansive Pacific Ocean on the far right. To the left lies Africa, while Europe occupies the upper left corner. This remarkable composition was made possible through data fusion from various satellites such as Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), NOas POES, Nimbus 7 satellites, and NASAs Terra satellite's MODIS instrument. The photograph not only captures different continents but also highlights key elements like cloud cover over certain areas and icy regions near polar zones. It offers a unique perspective on our planet's topography and vegetation distribution across different regions. This extraordinary satellite image serves as a testament to human advancements in earth observation sciences during the 21st century. Its intricate details provide valuable insights into our world's geographical makeup while showcasing NASA's technological prowess in capturing such awe-inspiring visuals from space.
