This has been circulating the web for a little bit, but for those who haven't seen it...

This little program (http://codefromthe70s.org/desktopearth_dl.asp) will automatically render a scene of earth from space in real-time. Adjust cloud cover, time of the year, etc., and it has the bonus of looking pretty.

There's some other neat software on that site, too.
