Of all the planets NASA has explored, none have matched the dynamic complexity of our own. Earth is constantly changing.

NASA are working to explore and understand the planet on scales from local to global. This time-lapse shows a composite for the eastern hemisphere from January 18 to July 25, 2014. Subtle changes in the snow and vegetation cover of the land vie for attention with a dynamic, swirling layer of clouds that are constantly present and constantly moving.
