NASA just released new pictures of the "Blue Marble". The first picture's high definition, is amazing. Compare it with the second picture, taken in 1972. The first's hd is so amazing, that if you look close enough in the N.E. Florida area, you can see me waving. :wave:

I hardly call seeing a miniscule portion of the west coast that is barely visible on the right hand side a picture. :roll:
