Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌍 🌏

Every 22 April, we celebrate the beauty and wonder of our home planet — and today, we’re inviting you to join us on a journey around the world… from above.

Swipe through this carousel of stunning views captured by our Earth Observation satellites and astronauts aboard the iss: from the glow of Europe at night to the sweeping sands of the Sahara, from the icy blues of the Great Bahamas Bank to the lush green of Egmont National Park and beyond.

Where’s your favourite place on Earth? Drop it in the comments and let’s build a global map together — one made of memories, stories, and love for this planet we all call home.

Thanks for being part of this global community!
