  • NASA - Earth and Moon as Seen from Mars

    EARTH AND MOON SEEN FROM MARS PHOTO. At the time the image was taken, Earth was 142 million kilometers (88 million miles) from Mars, giving the HiRISE image a scale of 142 kilometers (88 miles) per pixel, an Earth diameter of about 90 pixels and a moon diameter of 24 pixels. The phase angle is 98... more

    Not quite as cool as the pic one mars robot took of the other mars robot, but close.

    Spaceship Earth. We're not goin' anywhere soon--so we might as well learn to get along and take care of our environment. It's the only one we've got.

    EARTH AND MOON SEEN FROM MARS PHOTO. At the time the image was taken, Earth was 142 million kilometers (88 million miles) from Mars, giving the HiRISE image a scale of 142 kilometers (88 miles) per pixel, an Earth diameter of about 90 pixels and a moon diameter of 24 pixels. The phase angle is 98 degrees, which means that less than half of the disk of the Earth and the disk of the moon have direct illumination. We could image Earth and moon at full disk illumination only when they are on the opposite side of the sun from Mars, but then the range would be much greater and the image would show less detail.

    Will human can only see this in the future? Missing the earth so much. Knowing earth only from story, tale etc. (If you know what I mean...)
