Desert no matter seen from where looks deserted and arid. But is makes a difference when you see the photo taken from space. The satellite photo courtesy NASA on account of celebrating the Earth day. The Saudi Arabian desert appears as dim gold dust spread across covering rocks. The rocks indeed appear from space. But give an impression of insects crawling out from sand. The beautiful yellow and the black rocks enhance the beauty of the photograph. It is a wonder to even imagine that one can see the rocks from space. Surely the best way of celebrating the Earth day admiring this picture.
