Earthrise Canvas Print From 1968 (taken by William Anders).
This is a reprint of the original Earthrise photo of Earth and some of the Moon's surface that was taken from lunar orbit by astronaut William Anders on December 24, 1968, during the Apollo 8 mission.
At the beginning of the fourth of 10 orbits, the Apollo 8 spacecraft was emerging from the far side of the moon when a view of the blue-white planet filled one of the hatch windows. “Oh, my God! Look at that picture over there! Here’s the Earth coming up. Wow, is that pretty!” Anders exclaimed. He snapped a picture.
