Earth breath

An American data visualization designer, John Nelson, created an interesting animation called “A Breathing Earth” that demonstrates the weather changes on our planet. Based on NASA data from the Visible Earth archive project . In total, 12 images of the Earth were used (one for each month of the year), which are collected in animated GIF files.

The animation is fascinating. Our planet is a breathing living organism:
