Just a quick dumb question : where are the satellites and the stars ?
- Freaky 10y agoToo dim to show up in an exposure calibrated for a nearby sunlit Earth.
- creshal 10y agoSame with the Apollo photographs taken on the Moon – the surface is just too bright.

- foota 10y ago"Since Earth is extremely bright in the darkness of space, EPIC has to take very short exposure images (20-100 milliseconds). The much fainter stars are not visible in the background as a result of the short exposure times." - http://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/DSCOVR/ http://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/DSCOVR/
