While NASA satellites constantly look at Earth from space, on Earth Day we\u2019re asking you to step outside and take a picture of yourself in your corner of the world. Then post it to social media using the hashtag #GlobalSelfie.<\/p>\n
Bonus points if your #GlobalSelfie features your favorite body of water! About 71% of our Blue Marble is covered by water, and that water is one of the main reasons why Earth is like no other planet we\u2019ve found in this solar system, or beyond.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Why #GlobalSelfie?<\/strong><\/p>\n NASA astronauts brought home the first ever images of the whole planet from space. Now NASA satellites capture new images of Earth every second. With Earth-observing missions orbiting our home planet right now, and more set to launch this year, NASA studies Earth\u2019s atmosphere, land and oceans in all their complexity.<\/p>\n For Earth Day, we want everyone to share the planet from their point of view. Need an idea of what kind of picture to take? Get outside and show us mountains, parks, the sky, rivers, lakes \u2013 and you! Wherever you are, there\u2019s your picture.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n How do I take part?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n Post your photo to social media using the hashtag #GlobalSelfie.
