Explore your backyard or the other side of the Earth with EO Explorer. For more than 25 years, the Earth Observatory has published stories from all over our planet. Now we encourage you to explore those stories in a different way: by location.

You may filter the stories by de-selecting either the Image of the Day or Natural Events checkboxes (upper right of the map), or you can leave both boxes checked to view everything. You may also browse our imagery topically by visiting the Image of the Day or Natural Events topical pages.

Note: About one-third of our stories are global in scope and do not appear on this map.
