Pictures of the Earth – level 2

Pictures of the Earth

22-08-2022 15:00

NASA launched a new website. It features colour images of the full, sunlit side of the Earth. A NASA camera takes the images and it is 1.6 million kilometres away.

Each day, NASA will post images from 12 to 36 hours earlier. You can see how the Earth rotates.

Difficult words: launch (to start), feature (to have), post (to upload, to put on a website).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What do you think about these images of the Earth?
