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.
