NASA publishes a beautiful picture of the Earth sunrise – PC World

Image, or rather a series of pictures made probe Lunar
 Reconaissance Orbiter (LRO) , which continuously carries out
 observations of the moon. Noah Petro of the team responsible for LRO
 He said that this photo is comparable to the well-known photographer
 made by Harrison Schmitt during the Apollo 17. It was
 43 years ago.

Latest picture sunrise Earth is really series
 photo made on October 12 by two cameras
 LRO probe – NAC (Narrow Angle Camera) and WAC (Wide Angle Camera). FROM
 a series of black-and-white and color images created composition
 which you can see in the picture below. NASA also said that while LRO
 does dozens of photos each day rarely
 captures the dawn of the Earth, especially in such spectacular
 way – when you see the whole planet and a fragment of the surface
 Moon.

Sunrise Earth

Take pictures in space is also enough
 complex – probe takes photographs while moving,
 and yet also move as the Earth and the Moon. Additionally
 LRO cameras usually focus on the lunar surface.

During the photo shoot LRO was in the vicinity of the so-called.
 Compton crater. To perform such pictures must turn up
 about 67 degrees, and then capture the planet rushing approx.
 3.580 mph (relative to the moon).
 That the Earth was in October of cameras and lenses
 probe made this series of photographs, can therefore be categorized
 “fluke”. As a result, we can not enjoy our world
 all its glory and with uncommon perspective.
