This is an image of Earth and the moon, acquired on October 3, 2007, by the HiRISE camera on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. At the time the image was taken, Earth was 88 million miles from Mars.
It blows my mind that a camera exists that can take an image with enough detail to see clouds on Earth. From Mars. 88 million miles away. Where we sent it and control it. How could anyone NOT be excited about the future?!!?
