From 22,000 miles up, it�s a different world. Sights like Australia�s Marree Man geoglyph (pictured here), the ozone hole over the Antarctic, and a bombed Kandahar airstrip gain beauty and context. These images are a far cry from the first grainy black-and-white pictures of Earth, beamed home by Tiros 1 on April 1, 1960. The book Planet Earth (Knopf, $40) celebrates our new perspective with 150 never-before-published satellite photos from space agencies around the globe.
