On Sept. 21, Typhoon Usagi was moving between the northern Philippines and Taiwan when NASA's Aqua satellite passed overhead. NASA's AIRS instrument that flies aboard the Aqua satellite captured this near-infrared image on Sept. 21 at 505 UTC/1:05 a.m. EDT as Usagi. The near-infrared image is similar to how the clouds of the typhoon would appear in the daylight. Image Credit: NASA JPL, Ed Olsen Caption: NASA Goddard, Rob Gutro NASA image use policy.
