Planet Earth™ is a real-time 3-D model of the Earth with continuously updating night shadows and clouds. It uses an advanced raytracing algorithm and a high resolution satellite image to produce an extremely accurate picture of the Earth. The globe can be easily rotated and magnified to give a distant or close up view of the Earth from space.
Daily real-time satellite updates
The clouds are updated four times daily and are automatically downloaded and displayed when an internet connection is present. Cloud images are provided by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Space Science and Engineering Center (www.ssec.wisc.edu).
