MODIS Rapid Response System: Satellite Image Gallery
Care to see the world the way our alien overlords do? Google Earth is great, but I’ve fallen in love with the MODIS Rapid Response System. These ultra high resolution satellite images of dust storms in Iraq, phytoplankton blooms in the Barents Sea, and even a school fire in Washington are breathtaking and make excellent desktop wallpapers and screensaver images. The gallery goes back as far as 2001, which means there are plenty of awesome images to be dug up. (I’ve collected almost 30 spectacular views for wallpaper already.)
