December 24, 1968. Apollo 8 swung around the far side of the Moon, out of radio contact with everyone, and the crew watched the Earth come up over the lunar horizon. Bill Anders shot it. Frame AS08-14-2383 is the reason any of us can picture our own planet from outside at all.
I check one date and make it into a single card you keep: the true thing, the source line you can check yourself, and why it matters. One date, one card, said plainly. Two finished cards so far, both $5.
