Seeing the World Through the Eyes of a Satellite

In collaboration with Digital GlobeDaily Overview shows us the world as seen from above. Grant explains:

The mesmerizing flatness seen from this vantage point, the surprising comfort of systematic organization on a massive scale, or the vibrant colors that we capture will hopefully turn your head. However, once we have that attention, we hope you will go beyond the aesthetics, contemplate just exactly what it is that you’re seeing, and consider what that means for our planet.
