This data visualization of five-year global temperature differences from 1880 to 2008 was designed to be shown on the Science On A Sphere. Dark blue areas show regions where the temperature was cooler then the average temperature. Red areas show regions where the temperature was warmer then the average. This particular image show the global average from 2004 to 2008.

The movie opens on the date of November 1, 2006, with a view of the inner Solar System. We see the Sun, as well as the orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth (in blue) and Mars. We zoom in towards the Earth.

As we approach the Earth, we get a wide view of the spacecraft located at L1 as well as the Earth nestled within the magnetosphere. The magnetosphere forms due to the interaction of the Earth's geomagnetic field with the plasma of the solar wind. Solar wind pressure drags the magnetosphere back from the Earth, away from the Sun, much like a 'wind sock'. For convenience, arrows remind us of the direction of the Sun (yellow) and the direction that the Earth travels along its orbit (blue).

We fly throught the boundary of the magnetosphere for a closeup view of the Earth (note that the clouds are changing, updating based on weather satellite imagery from this time). We also see the orbits of heliofleet satellites that occupy near-Earth orbit. Here, the fleet include not only Earth-observing missions like TIMED and FAST, but solar observatories as well: TRACE, RHESSI, and Hinode.

Passing back through the boundary of the magnetosphere, we can now see the satellites, Geotail and Cluster, that patrol this region measuring the particles and fields. Cluster (actually Cluster II), is a group of four identical satellites that fly in formation through this region.
