Astronomy Picture of the Day" at http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html
has various types of pictures, each with an explanation written by a
professional astronomer, and, as the title suggests, a new picture is
posted daily. Check the archives for about two years' worth of previous
selections.

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap001127.html -- EARTHLIGHT AT NIGHT
-- http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0011/earthlights_dmsp_big.jpg
This site shows the whole planet at night and illustrates interesting urban
and transportation patterns as illuminated by human-made lights. Attention-grabbing
patterns emerge: the scarcity of lights for North vs. South Korea, the ribbon
of lights along the Nile, the township and range of the U.S. high plains grid,
and the life line of lights along the Trans-Siberian Railroad in Russia.
- EarthKAM http://www.earthkam.ucsd.edu/
-- a NASA sponsored program that provides true color images of our planet
taken from the Space Shuttle and International Space Station. Students have
taken thousands of photographs of Earth by using the WWW to direct a digital
camera on select space flights.

- EARTHSHOTS -- http://earthshots.usgs.gov/tableofcontents
-- before-and-after Landsat images (1972-present), showing recent environmental
events and introducing remote sensing.

- Shuttle Radar Topography Mission--August 22, 2003. RELEASE: 03-275. EARTH
HAS A NEW LOOK. Produced by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission, the
global data set, called "SRTM30," greatly improves maps of Earth's
land mass located between 60 degrees north and 60 degrees south of the equator.
That's roughly from the southern tip of Greenland to below the southern tip
of South America. The new images are available on the JPL Planetary Photojournal
at: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA03394
