Research direction
Start by reproducing the request to /planetary/earth/imagery with the listed coordinates, date, dimension, and API key, then trace the endpoint's handling of the two-minute timeout and 502 response. Done means the reported request no longer fails, or the issue is clearly documented with the confirmed limitation and expected behavior.
