The Change of Seasons: Views from Space
When seasons change, nature reacts differently depending on where you live. Temperatures change, rain or snow falls, rivers may flood. From space, NASA satellites record the change of seasons. Satellite images show large parts of the landscape at one time. This helps scientists study regional patterns on Earth. These images also help show bigger changes that may occur over several years.
What does the change in seasons look like where you live?
