Earth. Artwork of the Earth seen from space. It is centred on North America. Earth is the third planet from the Sun, and it is thought to be the only planet in the solar system that supports life. It has an atmosphere of nitrogen and oxygen, and clouds (white) of water vapour. Oceans of water (blue) form ice (white, upper centre) at the poles. The land cover varies from green vegetation to barren brown deserts. The bright band of the Milky Way runs behind Earth in the background

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and fragility of our home planet, Earth. From space, we see a breathtaking view of our globe, with North America taking center stage. As the third planet from the Sun, Earth is unique in its ability to support life. Its atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen and oxygen, creating the perfect conditions for living organisms to thrive. The image showcases the dynamic nature of our planet's climate system. Fluffy white clouds made up of water vapor float above vast oceans that shimmer in shades of blue. At the poles, ice formations glisten like diamonds against a backdrop of pristine white. From lush green vegetation to barren brown deserts, Earth's land cover varies dramatically across its surface. This diversity reminds us that our planet is an intricate tapestry where different ecosystems coexist. In this awe-inspiring photograph, we also catch a glimpse of the Milky Way galaxy stretching behind Earth like a celestial ribbon. It serves as a gentle reminder that while we call this beautiful blue marble home, there is still so much more to explore beyond our own planetary boundaries. This artwork by Science Photo Library invites us to appreciate and protect our precious biosphere—a haven for life amidst an infinite universe filled with wonder and mystery.
