Desktop wallpaper from outer space? Yep, NASA has that too and they’re happy to share it with you – all you have to do is go here and choose one of your favorites! From stargazing galaxies to the deepest depths of our own ocean, there’s something here to suit everyone, no matter what type of imagery you’re in the mood for.

Find a photo you like

NASA’s Earth Observatory has an expansive library of photos taken by the agency’s satellites and astronauts. At this time, I’m looking at the image shown here of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee. It was taken on December 17, 2003 and shows a view of the park that spans about eight kilometers. It’s hard to believe there are natural features that large on our planet. When you’re done looking at this photo, head over to Earthobservatory.nasa.gov/earthimages and find your own favorite view from outer space to take with you everywhere you go!

You can also use Google Images to look for NASA photos. Type NASA images into the search box, select All Images from Google Image Search, type in another keyword describing what you want (such as clouds, mountains, or cityscape), and then click Search Images for: [your keyword]. You’ll get a new page with numerous images related to your search term. Again, be sure to download whatever picture looks best as your background so it can remind you every day how awesome science is!

Both of those methods are great if you’re just looking for one photo, but if you really like browsing through lots of pictures taken by astronauts and satellites over space and time, head on over to The Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth . This incredible project gives everyone access to more than 240 thousand photos taken by NASA between 1968 and 1984. Just choose an image category that interests you–landscapes, cities, seasons, solar system–and go exploring! Whether you choose one image or find yourself scrolling through dozens of photographs on a regular basis—this is definitely an area that will leave your desktop wallpaper fresh each day.
