Earth 360 Video: The Call of Science

Join NASA Earth scientists for a 360 degree view of our planet in this interesting Earth 360 video. Experience what they do as they head into the field to study ice in Greenland and coral reefs in Hawaii. Posted by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, you can also stand with scientists on Arctic ice, fly above the ice sheet, glaciers and sea ice as part of Operation IceBridge. Furthermore, then we head to Hawaii while scientists dive into Kaneohe Bay as part of NASA’s CORAL mission.

360-degree videos let you look around your environment, so pay attention to what’s sneaking up behind you.

In a web browser you can simply click and drag the video around. On a mobile phone you can look around by moving your phone. In a VR visor, just turn your head. With the visor, sometimes it’s best if you have a swivel chair and a few feet of clearance in the real world.

As always, if you start to feel dizzy or nauseous, take off the visor and take a break.
