The Unforgettable Experience of Seeing Earth from Space

As we gaze up at the night sky, it's easy to take for granted the beauty and complexity of our planet. But what if you had the chance to see the Earth in a way that few people have ever experienced? From the unique perspective of the International Space Station, NASA's deputy director for earth science, Julie Robinson, will share her insights on what living in space can teach us about life on Earth.

The opportunity to explore space has given humanity a new appreciation for our home planet. By studying the Earth from space, scientists have gained valuable insights into climate change and its effects on communities around the world. In fact, data collected over several decades of continuous presence on the International Space Station has revealed surprising facts about the engineering systems that support human life.

When humans venture into space, they must replicate the same systems that the Earth provides to sustain life. This includes water, air, surface, and biota, all of which are essential for survival in the unforgiving environment of space. By studying these systems, scientists have learned how to improve the resilience of communities on our home planet.
