this is amazing!!!!!

eye of the storm pretty

Dang, really nice!

The clarity and intensity of the color is amazing. No smog, dust and such to muck it up! Looks like a special f/x shot from a movie! Unreal.

some astronauts train for years to fix and repair satellites in orbit, some just train to take pictures in space...lol.

I love NASA pictures.


Are those UFOs in the 9th and 10th pics?

They could be UFOs. Maybe it is another satellite. These pictures rock, the second one is my favorite.

Seriously though, what are those things? Satellites? Space trash?

wow... thats all I have to say.. wow! What kind of camera are they using for that i wonder?

canon rebel xti lmao nah jk

amazing pics...

Impressive.
What are you talking about, James?

i really like #2 where you can see all the land....

:clap:

Impressive.
What are you talking about, James?

Look at about the middle of the 10th pic, below the solar panels and to the left of the astronaut's feet. There's something in the haze of the Earth's atmosphere. Doesn't look like a reflection on the lens to me.

canon rebel xti lmao nah jk

Impressive.

It might be the Hubble Space Telescope. Look very close.

Could be some of them funky space rocks hurtling towards the atmosphere. :P :rofl:

Lol! If that's the case, that's one HUGE green screen :P.

Actually some people out there still conspire that we didn't land on the moon. But does it really matter now?

I want some uncompressed files :cry:. These pictures are way too small for my desktop...

Hmmm, I think you may be correct.

So yea, the atmosphere is definitely my favorite part of these pics.

that 3rd pic looks like a model...the colors are so crisp, and the BLACK background...it doesn't look real...

I thought the same thing.

I like these pics! mad nice yo ! :)

You have to take into consideration that there isnt any air there. So that takes out all the junk ( pollen, polutants ) and your left with just clear shots. That and the light off the sun ist filtered either. Just pure sun light.

For a second i thought that squiggly line through what ever land mass that is on the left in the second pic ... i thought it was the Great Wall of China. But i dont think so. If you follow it all the way to the right it looks to be a river that flows into the ocean.

AMAZING.

wow!

nice pictures !!! :bow:
