THIS is how ASTRONAUTS see earth from space

FUN FACT!
Something profound happens when astronauts see Earth from space for the first time.
When astronauts saw Earth from afar for the first time, they described a cognitive shift in awareness after seeing the planet "hanging in the void."
This state of mental clarity, called the "overview effect," occurs when you are flung so far away from Earth that you become totally overwhelmed and awed by the fragility and unity of life on our blue globe. It's the uncanny sense of understanding the "big picture," and of feeling connected to and yet bigger than the intricate processes bubbling on Earth.
