From Space to Earth Screen Saver

If you're looking to add some visual interest to your computer screen while also learning a little something about our planet, consider checking out a screen-saver engine called Satellite Eye. This software package provides you with satellite-eye views of different parts of earth, including stunning images of sandstorms in the Sahara, the Caspian Sea, the Aral Lake, China, Tibet, and more.

One of the key features of Satellite Eye is its 32-bit screen-saver engine, which rotates photos of these various locations on earth as seen on clear days from the earth's orbit. As the images change, you can enjoy over a dozen dynamic visual effects that appear between images, making for a truly immersive experience.

But that's not all - Satellite Eye also allows you to customize the program to your liking, with several appearance and behavior options all easily accessible from a clean, tabbed window. And if you fall in love with one of the photos, you can easily set it as your desktop wallpaper.

As a demo, Satellite Eye comes with eight photos, each of which can also be used as wallpaper. You can choose how often to cycle the wallpaper, whether that's every few hours or once a week - or never, if you prefer to stick with a static image. Overall, this is a great piece of software that's both visually stunning and highly customizable.
