ESA (Europe): http://earth.esa.int/satelliteimages/
NASA (USA): http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/
The committee of Earth Observation from Space http://www.ceos.org/ are contributing to The Group of Earth Observation http://www.earthobservations.org/ that work on integrating both space based earth observations and in-situ observations so that we get the best possible understanding of our home planet.”
