Earth photo from space (awesome!)
That is absolutely awesome! Thanks very much for sharing. Reminds me of this pic I saved from a post awhile back.

The detail and size of your pic certainly proves that we have the technology to see what's going on around the cities and towns of foreign countries.

Hmm...methinks something fishy is afoot. #1, there's no way that much of the Earth's surface would be cloud-free at one time, and #2, there's no way you could see features on the ocean floor that far from the coast. I think this is some kind of conglomeration of a radar/IR image and the something like the "nighttime" image of earth also posted in this thread. Also, the angle of the "sunset" doesn't look right to me...it should be roughly north-south, which it isn't in this photo if my memory of geography serves. Or has my memory been skewed by looking at too many flat maps of the world? Wow am I paranoid or what?
Still a very cool photo though
