Blue Marble 2012

Isn't our world absolutely gorgeous? New satellite from NASA captured this Hi-Res beauty and is offering a free download here for anyone who is interested. I tried downloading both the 1024 and the 8000 versions ... obviously the 1024 downloads faster, but the 8000 is well worth the extra minute it takes to load.

What a Wonderful World

You just have to love David Attenborough...

Another Amazing Time Lapse View from Space

Love the Aurora in this one....

..hope you all enjoy!

Now I know I over analyse things

This is an absolutely gorgeous sight.... I thought they had made this up for "Tangled" but it turns out to be a real thing that people do....

Amazing....

Except there is this little part of me wondering about fire risk (see 1:27 on the counter if you don't think this is a valid concern)... and the mess those empty bags will leave behind when they finally float back down to Earth...

Still.... it would be lovely to experience this in person
