For this assignment, we were given an iconic photo that we had to research and write a well written essay that was due for a grade. The research that was to go into the essay was all found on the internet. This picture was considered to be an iconic photo because this was the first photo taken of the far side of the earth. William Anders took this astounding photo that is known world wide and considered to be the photo that got the earth talking about the environment. Everybody really saw what the earth looked like and how blue it was, it is known to be part of the reason that people on earth started to "Go Green" and to stop polluting the earth. No human eye had ever seen this type of view of the earth like this.
