That's a second generation geostationary full scan disk image.
The image is of color-composite and forms one of the earlier clssic channels (Infra-red, Visible and water-vapor channels).

In-short this technology is 20years old and doesn't deserve front page status.

It's application is limited to storm tracking and certain cloud definitions.

lagerwhenindoubt: This is a Fraud that NASA and Illuminati have been performing since the 1st Man landed on the Moon and discovered Bayelsans grin

Please tell me this, how come when you get images of the moon from Earth, you see stars and other planetary objects, but when every you look at the earth from the moon or a gepo-stationary satellite, you see absolutely nothing but the earth - FREE YOUR MIND. THE ARCHITECT IS AT WORK
