Journey to the Center of the Earth

We've already embarked in journeys to other planets and even across the Universe, but today I bring you a journey that takes us in the opposite direction: to the center of our own planet.

Everything you need to know about Planet Earth

Our planet may seem huge to anyone standing on its surface, but the truth it's nothing but a small grain of dust in the vast expanse of the Universe. A fact that should make everyone rethink the way we treat our planet Earth and all its inhabitants.

New High Resolution Earth View

ESA (European Space Agency) has presented a new global portrait taken from space, detailing Earth’s land cover with a resolution never before obtained.

Although Earth’s land cover has been charted from space before, these new pictures have a resolution 10 times sharper than any of its predecessors.

The GlobCover system is a great step forward in our capacities to automatically produce new global land cover products with a finer resolution and a more detailed thematic content than ever achieved in the past," Frédéric Achard of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) said.
