Wonderful image of Earth and the moon together captured by lunar mission
China's current lunar module experiment is almost finished - but before Chang'e 5 gets back home on November 1, it sent back this beautiful little shot of our home world from the far side of our moon.
Our ball of blue looks so small, doesn’t it? Many of the most famous photos we have of earth from space were taken during the golden age of space exploration, in the 1960s and 1970s (the United State's final Apollo mission was in 1972), but we're still creating stunning images with every outward mission.
