Here's the one of the moon, I can't remember where I found it originally, so I just copied it to my server.

Edit: For some reason, the default "Gnome Image Viewer" in Linux fails to display this image, so I have to use GIMP to see it.

Can you open the tap on the bandwidth ? 549MB @ 120-330kB/s is gonna take a while

I'll see what I can do, I normally run about 3-4 Mbps upload speed, and about 15 down, but Comcast has been flakey over the past week.

Edit: Currently uploading at about 3 Mbps, which is around what it should be according to Comcast. If it's still slow it's probably just because that 3 Mbps is being divided among everybody that's downloading.

I don't see the USA in this image of Earth so it must be fake.
