From a distance of 22,240 miles (35,790km), the satellite shows what our planet looks like before any filters or image enhancements are made to the shot.

The satellite can see features down to around a third of a mile in size — twice the resolution of similar weather satellites that watch other parts of the globe, and take an entire globe image every minute, and entered service this week.

Will follow. Don't you just love the CGI images? Why are the stars only appearing in one image? Where are the stars in the other images? Who's taking the picture of the satellite? I could just go on and on. Awesome. Look forward to your posts.

Nice photos .
