BLUE MARBLE "Blue Marble" is a famous photo of the Earth taken by the crew of Apollo 17 on December 7, 1972, and is one of the most widely reproduced image in photography history. The shot became very famous because it is one of the few that shows the Earth completely illuminated. At the time of the shot, in fact, the Sun was behind the astronauts, thus illuminating the perfect sphere of our planet. From the distance of about 45,000 km, the Earth appeared to the astronauts as a "blue marble", from which the shot itself took its name, although the official name of the image is AS17-148-22727. |

Pangea Blue Marble is now available in two colors: Rose Gold Plated on a Blue Translucent Enamel Coating and Gold Plated on a Black Translucent Enamel Coating.
