US Geological Survey Publishes a Selection of Satellite Photos of the Earth

The images will be a part of a digital collection called Earth as Art.

US Geological Survey published a selection of photographs taken by Landsat 8 observation satellite, Artnet writes. The photographs will become a part of a digital collection called Earth as Art available at the website of the organization.

“At first glance, science and art might seem like an unlikely pairing. Yet throughout history, the intersection of these two fields has often resulted in science-based works of sublime beauty”, — the statement of the organization says.
