This stunning satellite image captures the beauty and diversity of our planet Earth, with a focus on the region of Oceania. The photograph showcases the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, dotted with small islands that make up Oceania. From Australia in the lower left corner to New Zealand in the lower right, this image encompasses a wide range of landscapes. The vibrant blue color represents water bodies, while lush green areas depict thriving vegetation. Arid regions are marked by shades of brown, and snow-covered peaks shine bright white. Both land and ocean floor topography are visible in intricate detail. Notable features include mainland Asia at the top left corner, Antarctica at the bottom center, and the Malay Archipelago towards the center-left. Deserts dominate Australia's interior while tropical forests line its coast and extend into islands within the Malay Archipelago.
