Blue Marble Olympics Presentation

Schematic of Blue Marble sphere with plasma screens
NASA visualizers, along with various other groups, collaborated to create a 16 ft sphere displaying the beautiful Blue Marble 2002 image outside the Olympic venue as well as zooms which are made available for networks to show as well as being played in a stadium for an audience including President Bush and John Glenn. NASA, NOAA, DOD, international and commercial Earth Science datasets were used to feature Utah and the Olympic venues as well as the Earth as a whole and the home towns of the participants around the world in stunning beauty.
