Aqua First Light: AMSR-E Pseudo Color on a Flat Map
AMSR-E is a passive microwave radiometer, all the channels are in microwave spectrum, not in visible spectrum. The image is to express the 'water planet' by simple color composite. Three day average data. Using only the descending paths, nightside orbits.

This visualization shows all channels in the microwave spectrum.    This visualization shows all channels in the microwave spectrum.
