New Earth Photos As Seen From 900 Million miles away.
SOME PERSPECTIVE
NEWEST IMAGES BELOW
All Earth History, Life that ever was, is, and will be… Is on this little Dot!
Now that is a Noodle Wrapper!
(Alec Baldwin Narrates)
For only the third time ever, Earth has been photographed from the outer Solar System. At a distance of 898 million miles, as seen by NASA’s Saturn-orbiting Cassini satellite, the Earth is a tiny, almost luminescent blue marble — or, perhaps, a not-quite-so-pale blue dot. If you zoom in (image below), you can even see the pale speck of the Moon next to Earth. As luck would have it, at almost exactly the same time, NASA’s MESSENGER satellite also captured an image of the Earth and Moon — this time from the inner Solar System, orbiting around Mercury (image below).
The complete photo above (download the 1920×0180 wallpaper) is a mosaic of 33 different images captured over 15 minutes on Friday afternoon, July 19. In almost ten years of orbiting Saturn, Cassini has only had the opportunity to image Earth twice — and this time, in a cute bit of public relations, NASA actually issued a press release asking the denizens of Earth to smile and wave while the photo was being captured. In short, if you waved at around 16:30 EST on July 19, there’s a chance that Cassini captured some photons bouncing off your arm — or, to put it another way, if Cassini was equipped with a gazillionjiggerpixel sensor, you’d be able to zoom in and resolve your smiling face.

Dayum space, you scary!
Just yesterday there was a story of a over 100 tons of silver found under the ocean. There are many more natural finds right here on Earth under the seas we see everyday that will create new and wonderful ventures. Overpopulation you say, why not cities underwater? Why not build ocean cites, they have all the elements needed for life outside its windows. Why should man spend billions of dollars on space exploration when there is still so much to discover right here on Earth?
@Boxed in Freight It’s possible to build an under the sea city but you know all of those environmentalist hippies are going to bitching and complaining about how we are destroying habitats and etc…
I would be interested for an explanation as to why Saturn is dark on the side nearest to the camera; thus the sun is illuminating its other side; yet “earth” is shining brightly. And the earth looks suspiciously similar in size to the “moon” in the Saturn photos, but a more appropriate size ratio is revealed by the “Mercury” photo.
As the old saying goes, don’t believe everything you read in the papers.
