This photo changed the world #earthrise #space

As Apollo 8 circled the Moon, humans saw our planet Earth “rise” over another celestial object for the very first time. Astronaut Bill Anders was looking for future landing sites when he photographed the picture that would come to be known as the iconic “Earthrise” image. Many consider “Earthrise,” to be one of the most important photos of the 20th century and credit the image with helping inspire the environmental movement.

RIP Mr. Anders. I recently met a nice couple that knew him and they had some fantastic stories about him. He was a special kind of guy and enormously talented.

Flerfs try to say this was faked, as the Earth would be about directly overhead from the surface. They seem unable to grasp 'Earthrise' was taken from the ORBITER.

Can I ask a question? So is it really just that dark in space … or what cuz like why not see anything else anywhere in this picture? Unless since space is so infinite it’s the light years always from literally everything else which could be why can someone explain??

Get it? He's telling us the moon is where the aliens live and we belong on Earth!

It looks completely sphere.... Not Oblate or buldged etc etc

It was NOT " the first time that humans left the earth "....! There were russian space flights before that. One might say that it was the first time that humans left the gravitational field of the earth.

It sounds like a pastor stating something seemingly profound. But not.

#Shorts should have their identifying tag in the video's title. #Shorts PLEASE?
