Most detailed pictures of Earth ever seen

These are the most detailed true colour pictures of the Earth ever seen. The images were released by NASA, and pieced together from pictures taken from a satellite of the surface.

This is truly amazing, to be able to see every square kilometer of Earth in detail. Most of the data to do this came from one single remote-sensing device known as Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer. It takes images from 700 kilometers above the Earth. Can you imagine anything so beautiful? This is home. This is where life began. It is amazing that we have come so far as to be able to look back upon ourselves in the night. It must be quite a sight to see it with the naked eye.
