Of course, now I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to use optical flow on the clouds. So that's optical flow on a curved surface applied to a semi transparent object.... I'm sure there's a comp-sci PhD in that.

I finished up my DSCOVR video sequence, interpolating the midday image for every day where there were enough images to use:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPM2kITNtTs&feature=youtu.be …

Wow Scott, what an awesome job! Love showing things based on real imagery instead of pure CGI to explain our world to my kiddos.

Not only is that a great visual from DSCOVR/EPIC, it's a great way to begin to understand how satellites in Lagrange orbits behave. Kudos.

Great video - great work! Slight correction - we see the far side in the video. Far side is fully lit, just like the side of Earth we can see. Side facing Earth (near side) is dark (new Moon). Best to avoid "dark side" - often confused with far side. Near side can be dark side!

I usually use 'Dark side' correctly... not in this case.

Great stuff! Can you explain why the orbit precesses in this strange rectangular way? I'm not sure what orbital mechanics would cause that.pic.twitter.com/Vpk2Uqx6Tj

I think a penny flipping on 2 axis (spinning on a table) gives a similar disc shaped rotation moving in a rectangular mode.
