Taken by astronaut Aki Hoshide aboard the International Space Station, as it orbited 261 miles above eastern China, this image is a testament to both human ingenuity and the wonders of our universe. The delicate glow emanating from the Moon casts a soft illumination on Earth's surface below, revealing hints of sprawling landscapes and shimmering bodies of water. The contrasting colors between the lunar landscape and our planet create a striking visual contrast that evokes awe-inspiring emotions.
