Gorgeous Satellite Images Show Earth As Other-Wordly Art



Our planet is beautiful. But while we may be used to breathtaking panoramics, satellites often catch a beauty that is completely foreign to us. The USGS has put together a gallery titled Earth As Art 3 that is on display in the Library of Congress, and the "paintings" are something that will have you staring for hours. Check more of these unusual images.

Last year, USGS showed off images of Earth As Art, and they're back with a new gallery set. io9 brought us to the image depicting the sharp line between earth and forest, and it took about two seconds to get lost in the gallery of amazing photos.
