    This helps explain why days seem shorter as we age, the Earth is spinning faster due to the conservation of angular momentum. The days are literally shorter.

    By the way, speaking of changed colours of planets: if you haven’t been keeping up with the latest news in space imagery and want a real mindbender, check out what has recently happened to Neptune. You may have been thinking, ooooh, what an enthralling blue planet! - bzzzzzt, turns out it’s a pretty bland and boring gas giant, the colours were exaggerated on purpose because otherwise you can’t see shit.

    The magnetic poles must be moving substantially. Africa has rotated almost 90 degrees in a few short decades!

      The blue Marble was also photographed “upside down.” We tend to rotate it because the shape of Africa is apparent and familiar. The new shot is taken further West and I think closer to the planet so not as much of its surface is visible.

      Well the second pic is also at night with a high iso and long exposure plus it’s digital so there’s a lot more noise going on.

        Speaking in generic terms, film is way more forgiving of over exposure and digital is way more forgiving of under exposure. A fast lens is always king, but once you hit parity on that I would personally take digital for low light any day.
