Everything NASA Measures Screensaver
The Everything NASA Measures screensaver shows earth-observation collections from NASA's Common Metadata Repository, key-less. The CMR indexes datasets from far more than NASA: the organisation codes run to Swiss forest inventories, Australian Antarctic surveys and Belgian satellite processing. Start dates reaching into the 1970s are common, because a climate collection is only useful with decades behind it. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
