This isnโt from the distant past, but I had to share it because itโs such a cool image of Baltimore. The photo below was taken by NASA from the International Space Station on October 16th, 2012. Obviously, itโs a night shot of the city, and Iโm sure youโll also find this one fascinating.
Click on the image for a much larger version and study it. The details and clarity are quite impressive.
