ESA satellite image of the Earth showing North America. True-color satellite image of North America. North is at top. Clouds are shown as white/light blue. The Atlantic (at right) and Pacific Oceans (at lower left) are blue/black. Vegetation is green, with forested mountainous areas appearing brown. North America is comprised of Canada (largely obscured by cloud at upper center), the USA (center to center left) and Mexico (lower left). To the right of Mexico is the Caribbean Sea, which is bordered to the southwest by the countries of Central America. This image was taken by the European Space Agency's Meteosat satellite, and supplied by ESA's European Space Operation Center in Darmstadt, Germany.
