Planets with two parent stars face a double whammy of
radiation, a situation that would seemingly make them far less suitable
for life than single-star systems -- but looks can be deceiving.
Pictures of the Earth, from suborbital space to billions of miles away, remind us how small our planet really is.
For a cosmic rendition of seeing the proverbial forest,
rather than the trees, take a look at Earth from the perspective of the
Saturn-orbiting Cassini spacecraft.
44 years after the Apollo 11 moon landing, Discovery News
relives the adventure of Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins' lunar mission
through some familiar and not-so-familiar photographs.
Very few images can summarize the entirety of our planet's
existence better than a photo from a spacecraft orbiting another planet
nearly 900 million miles away.
