Summary
editDescriptionGOES 16 on August 21 2017.jpg |
English: This true-color image of the Earth was captured on August 21, 2017, at 18:45 UTC, by the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) instrument flying aboard NOAA's preliminary GOES 16 satellite. When this image was taken, the total solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, was ongoing over the North American continent. Also visible in this image is the tropical wave that would eventually become Hurricane Harvey, which was near the Yucatan Peninsula, slightly outside the shadow of the solar eclipse. Hurricane Kenneth was also active in the Pacific Ocean on the far left and visible in this image were wildfires in the Pacific Northwest. |
