  • NASA TV does it fairly regularly, but I always thought there should be a stream that shows live satellite views of the Earth 24/7. Just switch between satellites when one crosses over to the night side.

    • In one of the last offices I worked in the military before I retired, there was a TV in the corner of the room, but the TV tuner attached to it only had one channel - NASA TV. I spent about a year by myself in that office, watching satellite views of the earth. It was very peaceful.

    • They at least have an ISS live stream going most of the time, but it's pretty boring at night or when they lose coverage

      • Oh nice, I didn't know it was constant now. It used to just be on between shows. Still, yeah, they need something to cover the day side all the time.

        Edit: That said, it appears to be down at the moment.

        • Yesssssssss this stream has been on for a long time Love it 😎 🤓

    • Zoom.earth is pretty neat as well.
