Huge, Stunning, Spectacularly Beautiful Photo of a Pacific Ocean Sunset

chamorrobible.org — When I build my first home in space the living room and master bedroom's huge window will face planet Earth. Just before going to bed--after a hard day's work of taking high-res pictures of stars, galaxies, black holes with the best camera money can make--I will stand in front of that window and say, My planet still is the prettiest of them all!

  • qwerty1024, on 10/11/2007, -4/+107Did you really need the "/sarcasm"?
  • VijchtiDoodah, on 10/11/2007, -7/+102Video games should look this good.

  • newton2k, on 10/11/2007, -2/+44Thanks for the new wallpaper. ;)
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -8/+47I thought I might. I have been burnt before for overestimating the average digger's intelligence.
  • ilkeryoldas, on 10/11/2007, -2/+40"My planet still is the prettiest of them all" ... that we know of...
  • Malarie, on 10/11/2007, -9/+32Im in ur space lookin at ur planetz.
  • Rfriaz, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21An image submission without the word [photo] in brackets, or caps lock? DUGG!
  • Steve082291, on 10/11/2007, -2/+20http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=11211.0
  • Angostura, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17It looks like a classic nimbo-cumulus thunderstorm to me, no?
  • luckyllama, on 10/11/2007, -4/+18I think he meant to title this THE COOLEST SUNSET PIC YOU'LL SEE ALL WEEK!! [PIC]!!
  • bretto, on 10/11/2007, -3/+17I didn't think the picture could live up to the title, but it truly is huge, stunning, spectacular, and beautiful.
  • TheDefiance, on 10/11/2007, -5/+14The article title was going so well, i was practically nursing a semi when the "pacific ocean sunset" bombshell hit.

    That said, it is a beautiful photo.
  • MadMan2k, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10Lens flare, sensor dust, vertical banding.. I guess the sun's a bitch without an atmosphere in the way.
  • Nohj, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11That is damn pretty.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -4/+12awesome pic, thanks
  • merrickx, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9I especially like that huge thunderhead cloud that seems to be pressing against the edge of the atmosphere. Never really seen that in a picture before.
  • Quake120, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7Agreed. Looks like a normal thunderstorm.
  • Onyxblaze, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7my eyes. Stupidity!!!!
  • sxtxixtxcxh, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5try using http://digg.com/space/Northern_lights_as_seen_from_space_Pic on the other monitor...
  • Daedalus81, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7And thank you for the good title AND description!
  • Alexx3k, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5For once a picture worth it's description :)
  • mahoua, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6What the hell are you talking about ??
  • PhilH, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6That has to be the best description I've ever read on Digg, and a wonderful picture too. Nice one vroom!
  • dajs, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4earth is just an awesome planet.
  • supermanred, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4The submitter has obviously never been to Roxicorical-Phalapatorious. The scenery makes Earth look like an asteroid.

    Look out for the Slitheen family though, bunch of *****.
  • tybris, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3How can you be sure the earth would be better off if we didn't kill each other?
  • Osagasu, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6Woah there buddy. the /sarcasm was probably just that. A mark that his comment was intended to be a joke.
  • Jugalator, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4I think it's not so much stupidity, but more about a training ground for debaters or trolls. The "real" FE Society ceased to exist a while ago, and this site appeared in 2004. I think they've set up their boards mostly just to have fun debating things, like taking on a faked opinion and trying to argue for it... Yes, a bit silly, but I don't think any special there actually *believe* in what they're arguing for unless it's against the "idea".
  • Jugalator, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6From my Digg experiences, oh yes, he definitely did. :-(
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4And we all thank him for that!
  • webgeek2point0, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Try this link: ftp://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/EFS_highres_ISS007_ISS007-E-10807.JPG . This is the original pic at 3032x1986.
  • vroom101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3...EVER
  • lhnz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I would have preferred:
    AMAZING! HUGE, STUNNING, SPECTACULARLY BEAUTIFUL PHOTO OF A PACIFIC OCEAN SUNSET BREAKING.
  • wushu18t, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3pic #9 with the shadow of Mt Rainier on the clouds is awesome.
  • inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I think the translation is Cenobite and I will shake them ourselves.
  • sxtxixtxcxh, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3hey... oddly enough, they look good on a dual monitor set up...

  • Slowface, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2dugg--->new wallpaper---> drool mopped up.
  • klick37, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2That's amazing; simply stunning! Dugg for being amazing, and astounding.

  • mahoua, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2haha, nice one, narc. subtil ;-)
  • liquidcoooled, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3How about the actual source?

  • BrokenVisage, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I wonder what Crematoria's sunset looks like from that vantage.
  • satx, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Quoi?
  • Quake120, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Too bad you can't see how to get to a grammar school...
