Asia. Satellite image centred on Asia. The North Pole is at upper right. Water is blue, vegetation is green, arid areas are brown, and snow and ice are white. The terrain of Asia varies from deserts (brown, central and southern Asia), to tropical rainforests (dark green, South-East Asia and the Malay Archipelago), to grasslands, forests and tundra (lighter green, northern Asia), and mountain ranges (centre). Also seen is Europe (upper left), Greenland (white, top centre), part of North America (top right), part of the Pacific Ocean (right), Australia (bottom right), and the Indian Ocean and the island of Madagascar (lower left).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vast and diverse continent of Asia, as seen from space. The satellite image captures the immense beauty and geographical features that define this landmass. From the North Pole at the upper right corner to the arid brown deserts of central and southern Asia, every element is vividly portrayed. The vibrant blue waters surrounding Asia contrast with the lush green vegetation found in Southeast Asia and the Malay Archipelago's tropical rainforests. Moving towards northern Asia, lighter shades of green depict grasslands, forests, tundra, and majestic mountain ranges at its center. In addition to highlighting Asia's stunning landscapes, this photo also offers a glimpse of neighboring continents and regions. Europe appears in the upper left corner while Greenland dominates the top center with its pristine white expanse. Part of North America can be observed on the top right side alongside a portion of the Pacific Ocean. Australia graces us with its presence in bottom right while lower left reveals glimpses of Indian Ocean along with Madagascar island. This remarkable satellite image not only provides an awe-inspiring view but also serves as a testament to Earth's natural wonders. It reminds us how interconnected our planet truly is, showcasing both human-inhabited areas like China, Russia, Japan, India as well as uninhabited terrains like Alaska or remote oceanic expanses such as Indian Ocean.
