Sorry, I'm part of a generation that grew up knowing what the earth looked like from space.

I'd like to hear what your reaction was the first time you saw a pic of the earth from space. I understand that no one really knew what it looked like, and the first pic caused quite a stir.

I was 7 and kind of remember it. Uncle worked for NASA in Houston, dad had worked on a JPL project that took the first pics of the moon from space (Ranger 7).

I do remember a year or two later when we'd all go to the school cafeteria to watch space stuff...back when school had one or two TVs, not one in every room!

I was 4yr+1month to the day. Cant say I remember it but I do remember sitting watching B/W TV of the space launches and stuff as a kid.

I grew up watching star trek, 20,000 leagues below the sea, dragnet, mod-squad etc...
