Squeezing through a mountain pass, the Malaspina glacier sprawls toward the sea. This false-color image of Alaska's largest glacier graces the new Web site Earth as Art, a gallery of images nabbed by the Landsat-7 satellite. The spacecraft, which captures visible light and infrared radiation reflected from the surface, has yielded eye-catching shots of every continent. From high above, Iranian salt marshes and the North African desert look like abstract paintings. You can download your favorite photos from a collection that spans sunburned Australia to the Brazilian rainforest, or send away for posters.
