STORY COPY: What’s the best picture of Earth ever?
That’s the question NASA’s Earth Observatory is asking in a visually arresting contest they have called Tournament Earth 2020.
Since 1999, Earth Observatory has published over 16,000 images, so to celebrate their 20th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, they want the public to pick their all-time best image.
Readers will narrow the field from 32 nominees down to one champion in a five-round knockout-style tournament. Pictures have been chosen under the categories: Past Winners, Home Planet, Land & Ice, and Sea & Sky. These will go head-to-head each week from March 23 to April 28, 2020, when a tournament winner will be announced.
NASA Earth Observatory is an online publishing outlet for NASA which was created in 1999. It is the principal source of satellite imagery and other scientific information pertaining to the climate and the environment which are being provided by NASA for consumption by the general public.
Ice caps and glaciers felt the heat as temperatures reached 18.3°C (64.9°F).
On February 6, 2020, weather stations recorded the hottest temperature on record for Antarctica. Thermometers at the Esperanza Base on the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula reached 18.3°C (64.9°F)—around the same temperature as Los Angeles that day. The warm spell caused widespread melting on nearby glaciers.

PetSavers pet photo competition, UK - Apr 2019
*Full story: https://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/uorb
A photo of a rescue dog panting in the long grass has won first prize in a competition to capture pictures of Britain's pets. The picture, taken by Yvette Roberts Shaw, was chosen from among more than 600 photos of cats and dogs in the annual contest run by PetSavers, a charity which is part of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association. This year's contest encouraged amateur photographers to take pictures of their pets at one of those special moments when they melt their heart. The competition was judged by staff at the British Small Animal Veterinary Association. Yvette, from Caerphilly, Wales, said: "Cassie is our rescue and is a Staffie x Boxer. She was in shelters for the majority of her younger years and was moved from Coventry to Bristol as she kept getting overlooked.
