Inside Earth Orbit, Looking Back
مدار الأرض
Turn and look home. From here the day and the night share one bright edge, a thin skin of air rings the planet, and the oceans send blue light back to the sun. We are close enough to see how Earth wears its daylight. We will stop on that edge, on the air, and on the blue.
