How Earth looks from the edge of space
In short: Explore how our planet appears through the eyes of astronauts and satellites. This video examines the visual differences between human perspectives from orbit and the advanced capabilities of artificial eyes.
Italian astronaut Roberto Vittori shares his observations from a 350-km high orbit, providing a human perspective on the view from the International Space Station. The video also explores how satellites, positioned at double that height, can detect details that remain invisible to the human eye. These observations are vital for the care and preservation of our planet.
