@AJamesMcCarthy We can see the lights of so many cities. lisbon.. madrid.. Amazing pic. Indeed its surprising to see the earth that clearly on night side with the sun right behind earth. I wish some photographer can explain why its that clear. There is also the light of the moon helping I guess

At first glance this looks like a daytime photo- but it’s not. I don’t think we’ve ever seen Earth at night photographed quite like this. Historic.
