This bookEarth from SpaceLooking at the earth from spaceIt is the photo album of the same name of the documentary, containing more than 200 full-color photos. From the perspective of man-made satellites overlooking the earth from space, it shows the operation mode inside the earth system and the amazing interaction between various subsystems, and reveals how they shape and maintain various life on the earth. While appreciating the exciting earth world, we will also understand the importance of protecting our earth homeland and take practical actions to protect our planet.You dont know home until you leave it.With over 200 spectacular images, including astonishing satellite images and stills from the BBC Natural History Unit’s footage, Earth from Space reveals our planet as you’ve never seen it before. For decades we competed to be the first to reach space, but it was when we looked back at Earth that we were truly awestruck. Now, for the first time, using advanced satellite images we can show the earth’s surface, its mega structures, weather patterns and natural wonders in breathtaking detail. From the colours and patterns that make up our planet to the mass migrations and seismic changes that shape it, Earth from Space sheds new light on the planet we call home. It reveals the intimate stories behind the breathtaking images, following herds of elephants crossing the plains of Africa and turtles travelling on ocean currents that are invisible unless seen from space. The true colours of our blue planet are revealed, from the striped tulip fields of Holland to the green swirl of a plankton super bloom that attracts a marine feeding frenzy. Whether its the world’s largest beaver dam – so remote it was only discovered through satellite imagery – or newly formed islands born from volcanic eruptions, discover a new perspective on our ever-changing planet.Michael Brightis the author of over 125 books including 100 Years of Wildlife, Wild Caribbean and Africa: Eye to Eye with the Unknown.
