  Impressionante!

• Robert Carrier said:

  Isn't the photo upside down? Or did the astronauts specifically frame the photograph so that the south pole is at the top of the image? Or was the Apollo spacecraft "upside down" in relation to the planet?

• Kyle said:

  It's not upside down for Australians!

• Carles Escrig i Royo said:

  @rmcarrier1: yes, the original is upside down.
