based on visual appeal, the first one is cooler.

but, depending on what the second one is depicting, it may or may not be cooler based on its context.

:lol:

What do you think it is?

I'd say that A marks a piece of history, mankinds achievement to get on to space.

B is just jaw dropping though.

Yeah it's Earth taken from Voyager from past Venus I believe, could be wrong on the location but it was nearing the edge of the solar system.

The second one is one of the famous last photos Voyager snapped as it zipped (and will continue to be zipping) out of our solar system (for a very, very long time; if it isn't obliterated by the Oort cloud).

The pixel in the middle is Earth.

Science!

better pic


Hold up un-science kids, check this out.

She's been hurtling out of the solar system since 1977, has an expected power supply life to 2020, and since her final pass and exit has been moving 38,000-ish mph.

Voyager is expected to say her last hello from 150 AU fromt he Earth

Or approximately thirteen thousand nine hundred fifty million miles from Earth.

13,950

Assuming it were instead jogging along the Earth's surface it would have circled us well over half a million times.

#2, the ol' Pale Blue Dot....I've always liked that one



But that first one is really cool. I like how it throws the perspective of what's "up, down, left, & right" out the window. As from that view, earth is on it's "side" with Antarctica around 10 o'clock
