NASA took this beauty from moon orbit in 2015. Some say viewing Earth from space changed how we feel about and experience our planet. But if you live here on the surface, not much has actually changed as a result of these photos. I think because that view is a ‘view from nowhere’. Nobody lives or could live at that viewpoint. If anything it may have made us less responsible, because it encouraged us to feel like we’re not bound by this planet. It’s the ultimate sightseeing travel shot. The culture of no-place. The movie Gravity beautifully challenged that exact shift in consciousness.
