Related: About this forumWatch a glorious 'Earthrise' from the perspective of the moon
(MSN) What's an Earthrise? It's much like a sunrise, only instead of watching the sun stretch above the horizon, this time we're watching earth itself rise, from the perspective of the moon. It's mind-blowing to watch. And a good exercise in reminding yourself that Earth isn't at the centre of this universe, or any universe for that matter.

Kubrick was such a genius.
It even feels like this video should have the movie soundtrack.....
