First live webcam from space
This webcam is located on the current Tate Satellite in orbit.
It is sending images to your browser live, in realtime.
This powerful wide angle webcam developed in collaboration with University College London enables a broad viewing range. Currently the webcam is focussed on our own planet, earth. You may take control of the webcam using the pan and zoom controls above.
How it works:
The webcam takes a still every 30 seconds which is then sent to the server. Depending on network traffic the webcam image on your browser should update at approximately 30 second intervals. (if after 40 seconds the image has not refreshed then please press the refresh or reload button on your browser toolbar). It takes a minimum of 20 seconds for the camera to respond to your instructions, and it may take up to a minute for you to see the resulting pan, or zoom. Tate in Space Webcam
