For those that like Earth Sciences, try this EPOD

http://epod.usra.edu/

Todays APOD should have been on EPOD :roll:

Come on, there are thousands of great astronomy photos to choose from, get into space, and off the planet APOD. :x

:lol:

I get (reasonably well) paid by the government to do research into how galaxies form, not to make pretty pictures. I do that in my spare time. I'm much more interested in pretty graphs, they tell so much more.

You'll find plenty of them here.

But if you want pretty pictures and science you can often find them here

I find the Astronaut Photographs very interesting:
The Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth

and Cassini-Huygens Images:
Cassini-Huygens:Multimedia - Images - Latest Press Images

Note that MSSS is down for some reason and hasn't changed their pic for over a week?

Whats up with that?

I would imagine that with MRO in operation, they have shifted priority $ to the new platform for the better science it will afford.
