Earth Photographed from Mars in Surprising Detail
First thing that crossed my mind when I saw this:
quote:
"....Across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast, cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us." -H.G. Wells, War of the Worlds, 1898

Nice one, Jim.
Reminds me of Sagan's "Reflections on a Mote of Dust"....
http://www.seds.org/billa/psc/pbd.html |
"We are all connected; to each other biologically, to the earth chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically."
"So you're made of detritus [from exploded stars]. Get over it. Or better yet, celebrate it. After all, what nobler thought can one cherish than that the universe lives within us all?"
-Neil DeGrasse Tyson |
