And I'm a proud Space nut who remembers what ALL the Apollo astronauts have told us when they came back: How beautiful the Earth was from a great distance.
Had there been a Triana at L1, it would have made many more understand there is much more than just LEO for astronauts. From LEO, you cannot see this.These are the only two known Full Earth views.
True, it won't make money, but at least it can inspire.
What we also see (the Moon Hoax theories) is that children are more interested in what they can see now, not in old pictures. THey urgently need these views, especially in the USA. The Meteosat pictures DO NOT show the Earth as our eyes would see it, but only as their instruments (meant to provide us with specialized info for meteorologists) analyze it.
I wonder if you are more anti-Dem than pro-Apolllo legacy.
