The satellite image showing Earth from geostationary orbit, captured by EUMETSAT's Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) satellite using the GeoColor RGB composite technique. The image displays both day and night views of Earth, with the daytime portion showing true color representation of land and clouds, while the nighttime portion appears darker with visible city lights. White cloud formations are scattered across the image, particularly along the intertropical convergence zone. The image provides a full disk view of Earth, showing the planet's curvature against a black background.
