Great Book

For those who can't afford a personal trip to the space station, this book provides excellent views of our planet from space. The photographs cover almost the whole globe and are very high quality.

A visual exploration of Earth and deep space as seen from a variety of mediums

Spacecam: Photographing The Final Frontier From Apollo To Hubble provides a visual exploration of Earth and deep space as seen from a variety of mediums: from the eyes of astronauts, satellites, space telescopes, and NASA probes. Lovely color photos on every page pack in what astronauts and probes see in space; from images of Earth to other worlds. There have been many other astronomy photo books published over the years, but most have a more singular focus: Hubble, Earth-from-Moon, etc. Spacecam is the most multi-faceted collection of them all.
