DescriptionEarthrise Revisited 2013.jpg |
English: This image is a still from a NASA computer simulation that re-creates the rising of the Earth as viewed from the Moon, which was captured in the notable 1968 photograph Earthrise. The surface of the Moon is based on LRO data. Earth's cloud patterns are based on the Environmental Science Services Administration 7 satellite as it observed our planet on December 24, 1968. The land surface is based on the Earth Observatory’s Terra MODIS Blue Marble. This high-fidelity re-creation shows the rising Earth as it must have looked to Apollo 8 astronauts William Anders, Frank Borman, and Jim Lovell in 1968. The western coast of Africa is visible along the lower part of the globe, with Antarctica in the upper left and South America along the top. |
