Viewed from another planet, Earth would appear bright and bluish in colour. In latitudinal belts, swirling white cloud patterns of midlatitude and tropical storms can be seen. The polar regions would appear white because of ice, the oceans a dark blue-black, the deserts a tawny beige, and forests and jungles a vibrant green.
