    >Almost certainly photoshopped; there are no clouds visible. Still, a nice picture.

    >It could be a radar rendering, or an x-ray rendering. Most of astronomy and planetary research isn’t done in the visible spectrum, so this could be just a visual expression of one of the data telescopes.

    >actually it looks like an IR, or UV rendering, since the colder, less energetic area’s are deep blue, building to brilliant white.

    >Looks like they took the earth at night shots from the nasa website and photoshopped into a globe. It’s a cool effect.
