Images of Earth and the moon together, taken from various spacecraft, show us what we look like from space.
NASA's Cassini spacecraft, which is currently dipping through Saturn's rings in its final days exploring the planet, captured an image of Earth (and its moon) seen as tiny points of light between Saturn's rings.
