The Sea is Red but the Earth is Still Blue....?
It's an obvious sight that in NME the ocean has become a red, lifeless pool. That being said, how is it that the Earth is still blue?
The colour of the earth kinda fluctuates. It goes from blue-ish with a red tinge
purpleish
to down right what a normal earth would look like; blue water and all.
Does that mean that the red ocean is only partial to one section of the world?

This belongs here, me thinks.

In the context of the first two images, one should be lead to believe that everything about the air on planet Earth is the same. Originally it's the sky the provides the ocean water with it's familiar blue hue, however in NME we see that the skies are still a perfect blue, meaning only the ocean has changed. The blueish hue we see at the edge of the Earth is the atmosphere being looked at a different angle.
As for the third image, I can't quite pick out the context. Is that when Nerv-02 explodes with Unit-04?

yeah, moments before you see the explosion spreading. Now, I just find it strange that compared to the image of earth at the end of EoE
Although both earths have red oceans, NME's earth looks much more normal from afar. Just something i noticed.

In addition as it seems the red ocean surrounds Japan, shouldn't the sky be red and not blue?
Haha just kidding.......

Why would the sky be red? Water reflects the color of the sky, not the other way around.
As for the third picture, for me it seems the green/bluish parts are land, and the dark one near the right edge is ocean.

CLEARLY IT TAKES PLACE AFTER END OF EVANGELION. THIS IS TOTALLY THE MOST RATIONAL EXPLANATION.
Or else you could just figure that Kaji's right, Second Impact did it and nobody knows how to fix it.
Nothing is so valuable that it need not be started afresh, nothing is so rich that it need not be enriched constantly.

Water is red.
Earth is blue.
I hate Rebuild.
And so do you.

They already explained why the waters became red in 1.0: after the Sachiel battle, Maya mentions something about a "rain of blood" during Second Impact. Also, Adams rise, sea life dies.
As to why it's still red: clearly they just don't have enough water-bleach handy.

To me it looks like the explosion happened on the other side of the continent. If you crank up the gamma a bit, you can see that there is a great landmass westward from the site of the explosion, and i think i could make out the Great Lakes around there somewhere. I guess that would mean that Eva-04's testing took place at a base somewhere in the Appalachian Mountains.

The red stuff is the Angel-equivalent of LCL from Adam's explosion being in the oceans (Angels explode into blood in Rebuild, as you know) so the water in the atmosphere which is distilated water should be all right -> the sky is still blue, and blue + red = purple. That explains the first two pictures.
Lakes and subteranean water should also be fine as Adam's remains spilled into the oceans only and they're mostly filled by rain. There must've been some normal water left somewhere, I mean, Shinji & co must drink something. Plus if the reain was infested, the preseration center would have a big fat roof.
You can't really see much on the last one, I mean, there's blue where NORTH AMERICA should be. It's probably some cloud stuff

Ok. We still don't know what is making the water red, it could be blood or some other mystery substance. But in the case of the color differences in the shots, it seem that they are either day shots or night shots. The light from the sun would reveal the red in the water of the oceans, but at night, the oceans would appear black from space due to lack of light. The purple would come from the sun angle during dawn and dusk allowing a certain amount of light to reflect off the water, making it seem purple.
The sky has nothing to do with the color of water. It is what makes up water that determines its color. The Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms absorb a lot of red light in the visible spectrum, as well as a little bit of green light, thus leaving blue to reflect back, creating the blue color. The sky being blue has to do with the atoms in the atmosphere absorbing and reflecting certain light within the visible spectrum.
So, at night, there is not reflection of the red light off of the tainted water, leaving it to look black (or normal) from space.
