Mars rovers see Earth, moons and stars
Topic: Space 12:46 am EST, Mar 13, 2004

] The Spirit rover on Mars took the first picture of Earth
] ever made from the surface of another planet. It also did
] a little astronomy, imaging bright stars.
]
] It also spotted what could be a Viking Orbiter spacecraft
] or a meteor -- scientists aren't sure which.
]
] The photo of Earth shows the planet as a bright dot above
] the horizon about an hour before sunrise. The image is
] not in color, though scientists say if a human stood in
] the same spot and looked earthward, home would probably
] appear pale blue.
