This photo was taken on September 22nd, on the Equinox. This picture fills me with awe because in this photo we can capture our massive planet in one photo, and then compared to the rest of the universe, it is smaller than a pen dot. Even in this photo, we cannot even fully comprehend how small we as people are on this planet. This photo captures the whole hemisphere being lit by the sun, and this photo can be only captured on the two equinoxes.
