COSMIC MESSAGE
What does the Earth look like from the Moon? A new version of this space age perspective was captured by the robotic Kaguya spacecraft currently in orbit around Earth's Moon. Launched two months ago by Japan, the scientific mission of the Selenological and Engineering Explorer, nicknamed Kaguya, is to study the origin and evolution of the Moon. This frame is from Kaguya's onboard HDTV camera.
