Credits

Daily images (clouds) are provided by services from NASA’s GIBS, part of EOSDIS. NASA-NOAA satellite Suomi-NPP, and MODIS Aqua and Terra provide continuous imagery for “AM” at local 10:30am, and “PM” at local 1:30pm.
Historical images (buildings) are provided by Bing Maps and Esri, and are updated every few months.
Near real-time (live) images are captured by NOAA NESDIS GOES-East via Esri, and are updated every 10 minutes.
See the whole Earth from space. Whole globe photos are captured hourly by DSCOVR.
Storm tracks and forecast maps are created using data from NHC, JTWC and IBTrACS. Follow on Twitter for updates.

Missing imagery

Some NASA imagery may not be available due to a delay in processing. Aqua/Terra images have some missing “stripes” around the equator due to the way those satellites orbit the Earth. In December and June, the north and south poles will not show imagery as they are in the polar night.
