TL;DR Summary

NOAA's GOES-East satellite captured a year's worth of daily snapshots of Earth's surface, showing the changing seasons from space. The video reveals the terminator, the line separating night and day, shifting throughout the year due to Earth's 23.5-degree tilt. The vernal equinox, marking the start of spring in the northern hemisphere, was observed on March 19, with the sun shining directly above the equator. The high-speed video provides a stunning perspective of Earth's seasonal changes from space.
