Desktop Earth is a Cool Wallpaper Generator
( Windows Only) Desktop Earth is a cool wallpaper, in fact it is a wallpaper generator. Desktop Earth generates a accurate high-resolution, representation of the Earth. The program uses maps provided by NASA as the source, and it includes several different viewing options such as: adjust the amount of cloud cover, view city lights, moonlit surfaces, Simple shadows.
Whats really cool is the days and nights are accurately represented depending on the Sun’s overhead position, and of course that all depends on both the time of day and the day of the year. It also accurately displays both the snow cover and the foliage changes with the seasons. This is nothing super extravagant, but it is pretty cool especially if you have children which makes it a learning tool. There is an added bonus with the download, it only uses 3MB while running which allows you to have this cool wallpaper without giving up a lot of system resources. Desktop Earth is a great way to get a cool moving wallpaper.
