This week I have decided to focus on images of our beautiful planet to celebrate Earth Day on April 22nd. After yesterdays beautiful close-up I thought it would be fun to go to the other extreme.
This image is called Pale Blue Dot and shows Planet Earth on Feb 14th 1990 from 6.4 billion kilometres away courtesy of Voyager 1 where 'Earth is a dot obscured in a beam of scattered sunlight (pinpointed by artificial blue circle).' Amazing!
Amazing! The universe is full of mystery.
