NASA has landed on the Moon, driven robots across Mars & peered into the depths of time and space… But we don’t have to look far to find an amazing, mysterious world: Earth. 🌎 Explore Earth with an upcoming miniseries from the Curious Universe podcast. go.nasa.gov/4j0VAp5

It's almost Earth Day. Let’s celebrate our home planet from a unique viewpoint – space! Use our “Your Name in ARCHIVED - NASA Landsat” app to spell out your name (or a pet, family member, or significant other’s name) with Earth features seen by satellite: go.nasa.gov/4jETaMq

These beautiful, spiraling currents play a big role in Earth’s climate!🌀🌊 These are Agulhas Rings. They carry salt and heat from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic and are part of a system of ocean currents that shapes the climates of North America, Europe, and Africa.

Iceland is still covered in snow and ice at this time of the year. However, in the ocean waters surrounding it, phytoplankton are starting to bloom. Phytoplankton is photosynthetic organisms that can form in visible swirling patterns. oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/gallery/810/

Scientists are using NASA satellite data to map tiny red zooplankton, the food source for one of Earth’s rarest mammals: the North Atlantic right whale. 🛰️🐳

One Earth satellite can see plankton that photosynthesize. The other measures water surface height. Together, their data reveals how sea life and the ocean are intertwined. This is how the PACE and SWOT missions work together to see the ocean. nasa.gov/missions/pace/…

Name a better duo than PACE and SWOT The Plankton Aerosol Cloud ocean Ecosystem satellite and the Surface Water and Ocean Topography satellite work in tandem to provide us with unprecedented information about our planet’s oceans. nasa.gov/podcasts/curio…

Small features, big science! 🌊 Data from the SWOT satellite reveals how small ocean features, some just a mile across, may have larger impacts on the movement of nutrients and heat than previously thought. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/3ZlwEAx

🌊 Deep-sea hydrothermal vents release minerals that feed tiny organisms—so many, they’re visible from space! These vents help drive global carbon cycling, and NASA tracks their impact via remote sensing. Nature is wild. 🔬🛰️ Watch how below 🔽
