"Earth as Seen from Mars
5/31/05
On its 449th martian day, or sol (April 29, 2005), NASA's Mars rover Opportunity woke up approximately an hour after sunset and took this picture of the fading twilight as the stars began to come out. Set against the fading red glow of the sky, the pale dot near the center of the picture is not a star, but a planet -- Earth."

If you look real hard you can see me. I'm the guy in the yellow Milan Dragway t-shirt waving!
 
You've just gotta love those two little rovers. They are champions.
