Earth and Moon Viewer

The Earth and Moon Viewer allows visitors to view either a real-time map of the Earth showing day and night regions, or view the Earth from the Sun, the Moon, the night side of the Earth, above any location on the planet that is specified by latitude, longitude, and altitude, from a satellite in Earth’s orbit, or above various cities around the globe.

There are many different viewing options of the Earth, which can be generated based on either a full-color image of the Earth by day and night, a topographical map of the Earth, up-to-date weather satellite imagery, a composite image of cloud cover superimposed on a map of the Earth, and several other features.

In addition to viewing the Earth, visitors can choose to view images of the Moon from the Earth, Sun, night side, or as a map showing day and night.

This website is really cool if you want to take a real-time look at all parts of the world and our moon as they constantly change!

  1. This is awesome! I love looking at the Earth at night. I have a poster like this in my room actually! It’s so cool to see clusters where people live figure out why they cluster there. Although it might be more interesting to look at dark places and figure out why!
