FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Are the satellite images real?
Yes. They are photographs taken by the satellites of NASA's Landsat program.
Is this NASA's "Your Name in Landsat" website?
No. EarthSpell is an independent app. NASA published the letter photographs and we credit them as the source, but the app is not made by NASA and is not endorsed by NASA.
Can I post the images the app makes on social media?
Yes. The app uses images from NASA's Landsat program, which are in the public domain and can be published again. In the app you can export each image in whichever layout you prefer.
Which letters can I use?
All 26, A to Z, plus spaces. Almost every letter has several variants to choose from, so the same letter can look different every time it appears.
Are these satellite images free to use?
The photographs come from the Landsat program, run by NASA and the USGS, and there are no restrictions on the use or redistribution of these images. It is spelled out on the official USGS page.
Is EarthSpell free?
Yes. You do not need an account, and there is no advertising and no paid plan.
