Default NASA's Home for EPIC Photos of Earth from Space Just Got Better

NASA's Home for EPIC Photos of Earth from Space Just Got Better
By Samantha Mathewson, Space.com Contributor | February 3, 2017

NASA has overhauled its archive of amazing Earth views from space. The
space agency's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) website will now
provide daily, up-close views of the planet in both natural and enhanced
color.

EPIC lives aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite,
which orbits the sun about 1 million miles from Earth and studies the
weather and climate systems of our planet. The camera captures a new image
approximately every hour from mid-April to mid-October, as well as every 2
hours during the rest of the year, NASA officials said in a statement.

animations of events like moon transits on the EPIC home page here.
