Composite of VIIRS satellite imagery of the western hemisphere during the 2017 total solar eclipse.
JPG
Imagery from VIIRS captured the path of the 2017 total solar eclipse over the contiguous U.S. from the Pacific to the Atlantic for the first time in almost 100 years.
Composite from NOAA-21 VIIRS satellite imagery of auroras over the Arctic created by the effects of a geomagnetic storm that reached the Earth on November 5-6, 2023.

Image of NOAA-20 Captured Detailed Thermal Imagery of Bomb Cyclone
JPEG
This VIIRS thermal infrared image shows stunning detail of the powerful 'bomb cyclone' that struck the East Coast of North America on Jan. 2-3, 2018.
Satellite image of Earth in blackout from the lunar eclipse
JPG
The full moon illuminates Day Night Band swaths but “blackouts” occur when Earth’s shadow blocks moonlight during Atlantic Ocean and South America overpasses for the May 16th total lunar eclipse in 2022.
Satellite image over water channels in southeast Alaska shows sea spray from winds.
PNG
In this VIIRS RGB image, the lighter blue colors identify sea spray generated by high winds over water in the narrow channels of southeast Alaska. The orientation of the spray also provides a good indication of where the strongest winds are…
Enhanced satellite image over the Bering Sea showing low stratocumulus low clouds in yellow.
JPEG
The VIIRS SnowCloud Discriminator with snow/ice in lavender-tinted white and low stratocumulus low clouds in yellow . The stratocumulus form in streets as strong northerly low level winds bring cold arctic air southward off the ice pack and across…
Image of the great lakes with infrared imagery
JPG
VIIRS image from NOAA-20 showing the water temperature of the lakes, taken at 4:19 pm ET on July 21, 2022. Note the cooler water in Lake Superior (blue/purple) compared to the relatively warmer water of Lake Erie (yellow/orange).
