No tank.
Gossamer thin coating on a mass of boiling rock. All the life in the universe is a coating, thinner than blue paint on a basketball.The ornament without a tree hanging in space.
@kevinrns Yep.

This is a very high exposure picture of the nigh side of the world. City lights, auroras, starts and Venus can be seen.
Also, do you realize how thin our atmosphere really is? We’re all living in a small fish tank. Everything we release into that thin layer of air matters.
@Ailantd High Resolution here:

And yes, we need to protect this thin layer! -

@Ailantd Always fun to see the small, faint crowns of the aurorae

@Ailantd I guess such an image worked well, because we currently have a full moon? Even with high exposure, the light for such a photo has to come from somewhere.

@Quantium40 Yes, I guess most of the light comes from the Moon in this picture.

It’s terrifying to think that this razor‑thin boundary is the only place in the entire universe where we can breathe and live.
@Ailantd and to think we are destroying it from the inside even with all those external threats (solar radiation, high energy particles).

I often think this when I visit mountainous areas, like Switzerland.
If you go up, even if only a couple of kilometres, the number of living things drops so very fast.
By the time you reach the snow line, the vast majority of living things cannot survive.
