[Sterling K. Webb]

List,
 
We're all familiar with the 
famous "blue marble" photo 
of the Earth supposedy taken 
by Apollo. (It was actually 
patched together for use as 
a publicity shot.)
 
But, there is (now) a true 
"blue marble" camera that 
photographs the Earth from 
a million miles out, the Earth 
Polychromatic Imaging Camera, 
or EPIC. 
 
There's a large archive of 
photos there to flip through, 
a movie of our endlessly 
fascinating planet.

I love to watch the home 
world from orbit... and it's 
much cheaper than the ticket 
to orbit.
