## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability nasa-epic-earth-full-disk-images-via-clonecho-ee86cb13 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the latest full-disk NASA EPIC image of Earth taken from the DSCOVR satellite at L1?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the latest real-time full-disk Earth imagery metadata from NASA's EPIC instrument on DSCOVR — ideal for space, science, or Earth observation applications needing current satellite imagery without managing NASA API keys directly. Prefer this over scraping NASA's own EPIC API if you want a paid, reliable proxy with a consistent interface.

## Known failure modes

- NASA EPIC API upstream outage causes no data returned
- No new images available if DSCOVR has not updated recently
- Stale data if NASA's feed has not refreshed
- HTTP 402 payment required if USDC payment not included
- Malformed JSON if upstream NASA response changes format

## How this service works
