Photo Prints from Space Images
The Earth and Moon
During its flight, the Galileo spacecraft returned images of the Earth and Moon. Separate images of the Earth and Moon were combined to generate this view. The Galileo spacecraft took the images in 1992 on its way to explore the Jupiter system in 1995-97. The image shows a partial view of the Earth centered on the Pacific Ocean about latitude 20 degrees south. The west coast of South America can be observed as well as the Caribbean; swirling white cloud patterns indicate storms in the southeast Pacific. The distinct bright ray crater at the bottom of the Moon is the Tycho impact basin. The lunar dark areas are lava rock filled impact basins. This picture contains same scale and relative color/albedo images of the Earth and Moon. False colors via use of the 1-micron filter as red, 727-nm filter as green, and violet filter as blue. The Galileo project is managed for NASAs Office of Space Science by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the Earth and Moon in all their celestial glory. Taken by the Galileo spacecraft during its journey to explore the Jupiter system, this image is a combination of separate pictures of our planet and its natural satellite. The year was 1992 when these awe-inspiring shots were captured. In this particular view, we are presented with a partial glimpse of Earth, centered on the vast Pacific Ocean around latitude 20 degrees south. From here, one can observe the majestic west coast of South America as well as the Caribbean region. Swirling white cloud patterns hint at storms brewing in the southeast Pacific. Meanwhile, on our lunar companion, we witness an intriguing sight—the Tycho impact basin—a distinct bright ray crater located at the bottom of the Moon's surface. Surrounding it are dark areas filled with lava rock from ancient impacts. To create this remarkable picture, scientists utilized false colors through filters: red represented by a 1-micron filter, green by a 727-nm filter, and blue using a violet filter. This technique allowed for accurate scale and relative color/albedo images of both Earth and Moon to be combined seamlessly. The Galileo project responsible for capturing this extraordinary snapshot is managed by NASA's Office of Space Science in collaboration with Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about our cosmic surroundings and our relentless pursuit to unravel their mysteries.
