Union Rayo - No calm sea ever made a skilled sailor, or so they say. Now that we’re talking about the sea… could you tell what colour the sea is? Does it depend on where you are? Or is it always blue? Green? Light blue? We know that none of us really know what colour the sea is, we know that it has light blue and light blue tones, and that if it rains it turns green, but… what if we saw the oceans of our planet from space for the first time, just as they look from up there?
Well, it has been possible thanks to the PACE satellite (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ocean Ecosystem), a satellite created by NASA that works as an inverse telescope, that is, it constantly records the Earth to see how it looks from up there.
