Dies ist eine ungefähre Echtfarbenansicht der Erde, wie sie MESSENGER während seines Vorbeiflugs an unserem Planeten im August 2005 gesehen hat. Ich habe sie aus Rohbildern in 433 nm, 559 nm und 629 nm zusammengestellt. Das Bild ist völlig unverbessert, genau so, wie es von der Raumsonde aufgenommen wurde.

    That blue marble is pretty, be neat if we found intelligent life there

    Every single day we don’t find any other life signs in universe, I appreciate how rare we are and it’s just something that blows my mind that in a yet to find life in our visible universe, we have life beaming in our entire world.

    Is it the same color as it was when we started taking color photos from up there?

    I mean, the. Continents probably look different, less green and more brown. But are the oceans a different color now?

    Edit: I should have clarified. I get that cameras can capture color differently, that post-processing exists, and that the appearance of things changes with seasons.

    What I’m asking is if we have the ability to know for sure that the ocean are the same color blue as they were in the 70s when we captured them with different camera tech.

    The question is coming from my existential dread about climate change.
