used data based on wavelengths of
visible and infrared light—a technique that turns vegetation into a rusty red
hue is very prominent in the shot.
The satellite took images from a single point over 35,000
kilometers over the Indian Ocean every 30 minutes, which was then combined to
create videos by educator James Drake to
show a day in the life of the planet. He used 350 full-resolution images taken
from the Russian Research Center for Earth Operative Monitoring.
