Tom, I remember those days. I credit the pictures of Earth from
space with starting the environmental movement. How could you
ignore the mindset that we were all just passengers on this
planet. I think they were the most impactful images of the last
century. Regards, Bob S.
Added to that amazing revelation is the fact that the marble we crap
on so frequently is hurtling through the vacuum of space at over
540,000 miles per hour, and that's just it's orbital speed. It
doesn't include the miniscule speed we experience on the surface
because of the Earth's rotation, nor the possibly humugous speed that
we are zipping along doing our part in the expansion of the universe.
We don't know relative to what, but we do know we are going there
pretty quickly.
Somebody's got to do it!
