The Pale Blue Dot...

On the other hand, if you have Stellarium, the planetarium program for your own computer, you can switch its home base from planet Earth to the view from the planet Mars, and see what Earth would look like from there....

And as you can see, it's daylight there just now, and so we can't actually pick out our planet from between those four markers near the Sun..... but we can zoom in on that region.....

And, yes indeed, we're still there! If you would like your own free copy of Stellarium , then just click on this link. It's not only educational, it's fun! - You'll never be able to travel through space any easier or cheaper, trust me. Would I lie to you? And the good news is, you can be home in time for lunch.
