The exhibit displays satellite photos that have an intrinsic aesthetic quality, showing the beauty of Earth as seen from really far away. There's an article about it on MSNBC here, and don't forget to check out those fjords!"

    Nice pictures, although the colours appear to be a bit artificial in some of them, in particular the green in the Brazilian shot. It would have been nice to see an un-enhanced photo for comparison.
