Night and (Earth) Day
This image, released in celebration of Earth Day, shows the terminator – the line between night and day – on Earth. The Artemis II astronauts captured this view on April 2, 2026, during their journey to the Moon.
NASA science improves life on Earth every day. We provide insights on our home planet that can only be gathered from space, which can then be used for disaster response, farming, and more. In addition, our observations of Earth and the technologies we develop provide the foundation needed to explore and sustain human life on the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Celebrando los delfines de Risso este Día de la Tierra
ES: En este Día de la Tierra, celebramos una victoria para el océano con los delfines de Risso.🐬 Hace algunos años, estos delfines quedaban atrapados en grandes cantidades como pesca accidental, resultando heridos o muriendo en las redes de pesca de atún. Afortunadamente, las estrictas regulaciones promulgadas en 2009 llevaron al desarrollo de prácticas de pesca de atún más seguras para los delfines en Estados Unidos, lo que ayudó a que sus poblaciones se recuperaran.
Hoy, los delfines de Risso son una presencia común en las aguas de la Bahía de Monterey. Se pueden ver con frecuencia por las embarcaciones de observación de ballenas e incluso por los visitantes desde nuestras terrazas.
Actualmente, esta especie está clasificada como de «Preocupación Menor» según la @IUCN, un poderoso recordatorio de que las políticas y la acción pueden generar un cambio real.
Elegir productos del mar sostenibles protege tanto al océano como a las personas que dependen de él para subsistir.
¡Cuéntanos qué es lo que más te gusta de estos delfines maravillosos!
EN: On this Earth Day, we’re celebrating an ocean win with Risso’s dolphins.🐬These dolphins were once lost in large numbers as bycatch, accidentally harmed and killed in tuna fishing nets. Thankfully, strong legal regulations enacted in 2009 led to the development of more dolphin-safe tuna fishing practices in the United States, helping their populations rebound.
Today, Risso’s dolphins are a common sight in the pristine waters of Monterey Bay, often spotted by whale watching boats or even by guests on our back deck.
This species is now listed as a species of “Least Concern” according to the @IUCN–a powerful reminder that policy and action can make real change. Choosing sustainable seafood protects the ocean and people who depend on it.
Tell us what you love about these dolphins!
Happy Earth Day
