One Year on Earth – Seen From 1 Million Miles
I’m Jay Herman. I’m the EPIC Lead Scientist for the DSCOVR mission. On July 6, 2015, we released this spectacular image of Earth taken by NASA’s EPIC camera. Now, we assembled more than 3,000 images captured by EPIC into a time-lapse sequence that shows a year in the life of our planet. EPIC is an Earth science instrument aboard the DSCOVR satellite, which launched in February 2015. The spacecraft always remains between the sun and the Earth approximately 1 million miles away, at a special gravitational balance point known as Lagrange 1. From this view, EPIC sees the sunrise in the west and the sunset in the east at least 13 times a day. The haze seen around the edges is due to scattering of light by molecules in the atmosphere. Scattering is also what makes the sky appear blue during the day and red at sunset. The colors shown are our best estimate of what a human sitting at the location of EPIC would see. EPIC takes at least one set of images about every two hours. The camera records each set in 10 different wavelengths. At least three separate wavelengths–red, green, and blue–are combined to produce this color view. In March, the moon passed between the Earth and the sun causing a total solar eclipse. During the eclipse, the moon cast its shadow over a portion of the planet. If we slow the video down, we can see the moon’s shadow make an appearance right about now. Although the view from EPIC is only once every two hours, we’re able to track features like the motion of clouds. Around two-thirds of the Earth is covered by clouds. Clouds reflect light from the sun, helping to keep the planet cool. They also trap heat rising from the surface, keeping the planet warm. Changes in cloud cover affect the heat balance and how warm the Earth becomes, which is one of the reasons why we study them. The hourly images of the entire sunlit side of the Earth provided by EPIC will be used to study the daily variations of features over the entire globe helping us to better understand and protect our home planet.
Fake!! 😆🤭
How does this video have thumbs down? Do you hate puppies too?
I'm confused, so the satellite was in a stationary orbit, WHILE the earth spun on its axis?….so why is everything around the earth redacted, where is any variation in sun light, why do we see the same luminosity all year?
lol fake.
amazing.1 year pass by and the clouds remain the same
So where exactly is the moon hiding all this time so that we only see it's shadow but never the actual moon?
And why are the clouds repeating the same shapes and locations on the earth over and over? Clouds change much more drastically than this video shows.
This looks like a cartoon to me.
Seriously, people don't see all the issues with these supposed "photos" of the earth? I bet even NASA says it is a computer generated image. NASA clearly tells us that the satilite collects data and the formulates an image from the data.
So no stars and clouds that repeat the exacts size and shapes all year. Looks like way too much land mass also.
Even for a cartoon this is lame. They need ask Disney to help them make something more realistic.
They give us stuff like this that doesn't even match up with the "facts" concerning the earth they taught us in school and then wonder why we question it.
For as much money as we give NASA they should do a better job faking stuff.
Again, I ask you, where are the stars? Why are the clouds repeating themselves over and over? Why is there so much land mass compared to ocean? I thought it was supposed to be pear shaped, looks pretty round ball shaped to me. Tell the truth, even NASA does not claim these to be actual photos but computer generated images, correct?
Earth has ALWAYS been a sphere.
I once thought the earth was flat, then my brain started to develop in the womb
Well…I counted about 114 days here in this video, not sure why they are claiming a year?
Isn't a year 365 days?…..I counted the revolutions at 114 days, they counted a year's worth of months in the video?
So lets see…we have a blacked out background, no debris floating by, no background stars, stagnant illumination, 2/3rds of the year missing, false timeline analysis by the narrator, mysterious Dish network channel take down….hmmm?
Oh yeah, that looks like a pear. Lol.
Oh yeah, that looks like a pear. Lol.
Oh yeah, that looks like a pear. Lol.
How are they going to put something out there a miilion miles away and keep it there when they can't even keep a signal to my cell phone. People are naive.
Another thing bothering me since we are on the subject, is this whole thing about this being 1million miles away. The moon is a 240 thousand miles away….so …where is the moon in these frames?….they show the shadow of the moon, but the moon should have passed right in front of the satellite at some point?
Another question…..the guy in this video is making this point about this 3 color camera to build the image, but why are they using this type of camera?
That kind is used for objects much farther away than earth and moon, any standard camera would have worked as well?
i am looking at the earth in 2d its definitely. FLAT… circle or no circle defifitly FLAT ha hha
where are all the satellites?
Fantased to See that how many Lives were borned and died in this Whole year😦😦
Yet another question…?
They recently canceled a flight from Newark to Singapore because of cost, you can look up story, anyway I was looking at the flight path and it goes strait over the North pole IN A STRAIT LINE?….anyway, the flight takes 18 hours from Newark to Singapore and if the earth is rotating to the east then in 18 hours you would almost be back right were you started in Newark?…how can this be?
It is round that's for shur….. But you should get a picture with the sun the moon and a full body shot of earth. I mean come on we are on Mars.
I'm not a flatearther, but this looks fake
Wake up and see the lies!
Not one satellite appeared out of 1000's orbiting the globe…hmm.
Where are the stars? Why were we not able to see the moon during the eclipse?
How is it that these photos only show day time over a long period of time. Are these satellites moving in EXACT sync with the sun. Shouldn't it be moving in sync . I guess the laws of physics changes depending on how one wishes a satalite orbits around the earth.?
Moon is 1/4 million miles from earth and these photos are taken a million miles from earth but we can't see the moon. Wake up people.
Some many clouds do not change formation this is ridiculous.
Where's the stars in the background?
2.3K flat earthers disliked this video
put me by earth and that's me in 5 sec infinity space!!
So beautiful too bad we’re killing the earth
Neil Degrass Tyson says Earth oblate. However, all the pictures I see of Earth from so-called space do not show an oblate sphere. Answer me this, the so-called famous Blue Marble photo (supposedly a single shot photo) taken from space at a distance of about 18,000 miles from Earth on December 7, 1972 looks practically the same as the photo taken from Nasa's Epic camera almost 1,000,000 miles away on July 20, 2016. They admit to "assembling" the images captured from Epic. Why would they need to assemble the images? Wouldn't the image look much smaller? Like fifty times smaller? It is hard to believe that Nasa took a photo of Earth a million miles away just to zoom in on it and make it look like all other photos taken from space provided by them. Also if you look at Earth photos taken by Nasa from space over the years, the images are never consistent. Has the Earth changed that drastically since Nasa's inception? Furthermore, the year long time lapse video does not even show the moon orbiting the Earth, but somehow captures the moon's shadow during an eclipse.
I am in search of truth and expose lies. I look forward to feedback from you, NASA Goddard, or anyone else who reads this so that I may obtain truth, or expose lies. Thanks and may Jesus be with you.

Fake CGI
I think I was there when this was done?
0:54 australia ?!?
alguien aqui por el robot de platon?
The eath is round i knew it
Where are all the stars?Oh,there's Arnie,Stallone,Willis!
Isn’t it crazy that this was created by something more powerful than an atomic bomb? Thanks to the Big Bang. :))
Flat earthers: The earth is flat, prove me wrong
Nasa: yes
That looks so freaking fake, they need to come up wit better cgi than this
Why is it on my birthday
Please answer: where are satellites, space junk, stars and all the "dangerous" asteroids flying around earth?
y can't we see satellites and space debris
I guess the CGI computer algorithm couldn't figure out how to put clouds on the coast of South America. The clouds just stop and form a western south American sized shape before they hit the coast.
we will never be able to see the earth as an entire globe, once again CGI at work
"COMPUTERS" THEY ARE NOT SHOWING US THE REAL!!!
''IF THEY DID IT WILL BE ALL THE TIME''!!!!
Finally this is the one video to prove that the earth is not flat at all. Thank you.
Why is everyone saying to flat earthers “show me proof of a flat earth”… when all your proof that it’s round is done with cgi??? Edit: show me one real photo of a spherical earth
Cloud patterns never change
This is round where is sphere
No stars lol
Epic could catch clouds n details but where are the stars?
Slow it down as slow as possibly and check the blatant all seeing eye in the clouds @ 0:31 I mean tell me have you ever seen triangle clouds before?
The Earth is a perfect ball.
I don't understand. . . if the satellite is at a gravitational balance point, and is always between the earth and the sun, how does it see sunrise and sunset at least 13 times a day? Isn't it permanently seeing both at the same time?
Pppppffftttttt!!! Ah ah ah ha ha ha 😬🤭😁😆😅😂🤣
Didn’t that dude from NASA admitted this view was a composite???
Oh so this looks real to you ? Can’t relate.
So silly looking. What a fraud.
My favourite video… 😄😄😄 The background music and the guy narrating just works… Not forgetting the star of the whole video the actual Earth…
We were all in this video. 😄😄😄
Arabian peninsula is always clear from clouds !!!
where are chem trails?
oh an my child just pointed out there are no stars!
Wondering how this satellite could see the sunlit side every two hours. With what orbit is this possible!?
It seem to be in a Lagrange point. Recently found out what these are and now learning how valuable this is. Thanks for the great video.
(KJV)(Luke 9:25) For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
(KJV)(Job 27:8) For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?
(KJV)(Acts 16:30-31) And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
Lies
Fake
U didn’t mention what the effects of the cemtrails
This cartoon proves all the wild assertions of modern cosmology. I see the Earth's 1024 mph rotation clearly. But how do they hold the camera so still considering the Earth itself is orbiting the Sun at 66,600mph?
Thought it was “pear” shaped?
Nonsense!
You see the moon shadow but never see the moon?
you guys do know that its officially said to be an oblique spheroid ? therefore this is a fraud!
Que hermoso que la tierra sea un geoide que podamos ver desde lejos y no un plano cubierto por una cúpula :'D
With All Due Respect:
I thought Earth was a Solid Planet.
Remind me again, how you Scientists at NASA, came up with the Idea that the further North or South you go…The Slower the Earth Spins? I mean, if the earth is Solid, why they difference in Speed? If Earth is a Solid Object, which is what we are told, it would stand to reason, it would stand Logically, the further North or South you go, the Faster it would spin, wouldn't it? If it is a Solid Object, it rotates at the same speed.
timelaps of one year? The clouds are in same position for one year.
Gci
Flat earthers hurt my head so much.
If you pause the video and keep pressing . or , you can watch it spin frame by frame
nice CGI video, same cloud formation during the all video.
Let me get this straight. This camera is a million miles from earth. The moon is thus 700,000 miles from the camera. The camera is always between the Earth and the Sun. Where is the Moon again? Seen a shadow, where's dat Moon?
No video only picture compilation very unusual for NASA with billions invested. With thousand of satellites up in space and not a single video released by NASA of rotating Earth
Fake.
I've gone to NASA before
It's literally says sex in the bottom left. 0:15 it's upside down.
Now watch it again and think about what you were doing that year in those months.
I'd recommend muting it and listening to something instrumental the second time through.
A million miles away? Can’t even get good cell phone reception in the middle of town!
The shadow of the moon during eclipse is only 70 miles! The shadow he pointed out was about a thousand miles across!? Wtf? No moon no stars ! And the award for fakest looking composite of earth goes to?? NASA!
It's photoshoped because it has to be!
Beautiful nonsense 🙂 I also think fairies are beautiful 🙂
Nice cartoon
🤔You gotta be truly brilliant if you can get a camera to stay between the sun and the earth and the earth and the moon simultaneously for a year. Well done NASA I applaud you.

It's truly amazing to see the amount of brainwashed human beings trying their hardest to show this is somehow faked, some even giving up and saying "it has to" because now matter what they will always refuse to admit this really is what Earth looks like. It is both hilarious and scary to think those belong to the same species as me.
