Hi! I just came across the author's repo was thinking the same thing! https://github.com/mczachurski/wallpapper https://github.com/mczachurski/wallpapper I think the best source would be GOES-R / GOES-17 full disc geocolor images. I'll post back with a list of potential servers.

Colorado State provides a website that serves near-realtime processed data from various weather satellites: http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu they offer a tool called Slider that lets users create overlays of various satellite image streams. You can access imagery from GOES-East, GOES-West, Humawari-8, and JPSS. Here is a loop of Goes-17 ("goes west") Full Disk Geocolor images captured every 15 minutes for a full 24 hours, starting 9:00 PM PST 2018-10-16 to 10:00 PM PST 2018-10-17: https://col.st/sNSct https://col.st/sNSct Note that GOES East geocolor images seem to render a synthetic city lights texture + live cloud coverage for night-time images. Goes West is just dark. NOAA publishes high resolution Goes-16 ("goes east") images every 15 minutes, and seems to lag about 30-60 minutes behind the actual time of capture by the satellite. Here's the latest: https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/index.php https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/index.php

NASA's DSCOVR satellite is positioned such that it is always between the earth and the sun, so it always has a view of the sunny side of the earth. I think its' EPIC product produces a full-disk image every hour. https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov
