One of my favourite photographs of all time - “Earthrise” from the Apollo 8 Mission. You develop an instant global consciousness; a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, “Look at that, you son of a bitch.” - Edgar Mitchell
