The planets, lighting, clouds, star field, and motion on this site are artistic web interpretations based on publicly available observational media. They include colour adjustment, compositing, deformation, and animation, and are not scientific visualisations or representations of exact times and positions. NASA, JPL, ESA, and the other credited organisations do not endorse, sponsor, or have an affiliation with SAINO or this website.
Earth
The daylight surface is based on NASA Visible Earth Blue Marble media, and the night surface is based on NASA Earth Observatory Earth at Night media. Clouds, oceans, city lights, and polar areas have been composited and adjusted for web display.
Moon
Based on LRO, LROC, and LOLA lunar data published by NASA Scientific Visualization Studio, adjusted for web display to retain visible crater detail.
Mars
Based on Viking- and MOLA-derived Mars media published by NASA Visible Earth, with colour and surface depth adjusted for web display.
Jupiter
Based on Cassini global map PIA07782 by NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute, adjusted for spherical display and the presentation of the Great Red Spot. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute.
Star field
Based on Deep Star Maps 2020 by NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio. Gaia DR2 credit: ESA/Gaia/DPAC. Credit: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio; Gaia DR2: ESA/Gaia/DPAC.
