Click on image for NASA website with more images and movies.

Some folks have paid as much as $20 Million to see these images! :3eye:

like i said, something to really humble you...

i'm not even a tiny speck on there!

Another way to look at it, all of that was created to maintain you. Makes you feel more significant, eh?

I set the Blue Marble image, above, as my desktop background image. This image has such depth and clarity that really looks like a 3D sphere floating in a black void. Holographic!

I'd like to do that too. How do I get the image onto my HD?

I have it as the huge file from the website but that's too big.

One of these days I simply MUST get with the (computer) times.

Wow!
 

I can see my house from here!

Brian, the image linked above is only about 66mb. If you are using Windows, right click on the image above and choose Save Picture As or Save Target As and choose the folder you want to save it in.

Thank you. I remembered how to do it right after you reminded me.

I really did know that, I just get very absent-minded lately.
Docs say its normal for the meds I'm on.
And my stress level.
