The first set of images (above) shows a natural view of night lights from the “day-night band” (DNB) of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). This image of Earth at night in 2016 was created with data from the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite launched in October 2011 by NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Department of Defense. 27 Dec 2020 07:14:26 UTC. 25 Dec 2020 06:11:17 UTC. view. view. The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) and the Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) sensors, found on the NOAA-NASA Suomi NPP satellite, collected daily images … view. Left image shows the Cloud Mask, with white indicating clouds and dark red indicating high probability of clear sky (easily seen over the Sahara Desert near the top of the image). NASA released this incredible new high-res image of the Earth, taken by the recently launched Earth-observing satellite, Suomi NPP. 24 Dec 2020 06:31:37 UTC. Both products are shown on a Suomi NPP daily global base map image. This designation is used mainly for managing and prioritizing mission resources that share common services.
