Earthrise
Tom Stafford, Gene Cernan and John Young of Apollo 10, while orbiting the moon, close
to its surface (but not landing), saw the earth appear above the lunar horizon.
The sight moved Stafford to radio to Houston : Charlie, we just saw an earthrise and it's just got to be magnificent!
Between moon and earth, the astronauts of Apollo 10 had this view of the most moving sight in all of space: the cloud-swirled orb, flowing blue with oceans that holds all life known to exist. The west coast of North America is shown below through the cloud patterns.
