    Quoting from Spaceflightnow:

    Another notable HiRISE image released today shows a blue crescent Earth and
    its moon, as seen by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The west coast of
    South America is visible in the photo. Still other images allow viewers to
    explore a wide variety of Martian terrains, such as dramatic canyons and
    rhythmic patterns of sand dunes.

    The camera is one of six science instruments on the orbiter. The spacecraft
    reached Mars in March 2006 and has returned more data than all other current
    and past missions to Mars combined.
