Since 1997 NASA satalites have been continuously recording and observing the surface of Earth land, plant life and oceans.
We now have 20 years worth of imagery compiled to show scales of temperature changes, snowfall and vegetation growth.
From this perspective we can view the Living cycles of Earth's breath.

"A true understanding of our planet requires us to keep a keen eye on its living inhabitants. With NASA's fleet of Earth-observing satellites, scientists can track worldwide changes in vegetation, marine life, human development and more. We’ve seen fisheries evolving, deserts expanding, spring coming earlier and fall coming later. Seeing these kinds of changes occur all over the world has taught us a lot about the ingredients for life and the environmental conditions that can sustain it.We only know of one planet that pulses with life. NASA's outlook from space shows us what makes Earth different from the thousands of other planets we’ve discovered so far. And when considering the vastness of unlivable space, Earth seems evermore fragile and beautiful." Source

These powerful images can bring us into a feeling of True humbleness,
As we honor the larger cycles that control our lives and the vastness of Living space that we are but a blip upon.
The Earth truly is a Living system which includes all creatures and elements.
While we do massive harm through the careless systems of our primitive culture,
The Earth has the power to turn ground under our feet, boil mountains, drain the Seas...
She is self-sustainable, and we are here as witness to Her great power and wisdom.
We are here to learn from Earth,
And there is still much for us to learn!
How do these images make you feel?
What do you practice in your life to stay in tune with Mother Nature?
