As astronaut Ron Garan wrote here on The Atlantic last December, seeing our planet like that imparts the realization "that we are all riding through the universe together on this spaceship we call Earth, that we are all interconnected, that we are all in this together, Read More that we are all family." Take two minutes to enjoy the video below (full-screen recommended), and get a glimpse of the world from that "orbital perspective" -- both literally and figuratively. Mon, 02 Jul 2012 17:56:21 UTC en
