Full Moon
Tonight the Moon is full. And it always have this effect on me. Just like on most people since we can remember. Because I’m always amazed. I always hold my breath just for a bit so it understands I’m watching and feeling it. I cannot truly explain it. I cannot simply put it in words. Although I try. Miserably. It’s pure beauty.
This image of the Earth and moon in a single frame, the first of its kind ever taken by a spacecraft, was recorded on Sept. 18, 1977, by Voyager 1 when it was 7.25 million miles from Earth. The spacecraft launched on July 20, 1975.
This photo was made from three images taken through color filters, then processed at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Because the Earth is many times brighter than the moon, the moon was artificially brightened so that both bodies would show clearly in the prints.
