The effects of global climate change are being felt across the globe. Planet-mapping satellites show us what is happening now - and what is still to come.
Using stunning, latest-generation imagery from space, Atlas of a Changing Earth takes viewers into the dynamic processes causing coastal glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica to melt, and explores how rising seas could threaten coastlines the world over.
These striking new images are produced by the confluence of satellites and supercomputers, revealing Earth in a degree of precise detail scarcely imagined a generation ago.
Aimed at age 10+. Free for Starlight Explorer passes.
