Indian Mars Probe Takes Photo of Earth

November 21, 2013. India's Mars probe Mangalyan took a picture of Earth from a height of about 40,000 miles. Resolution of this image is about 7 miles per pixel. The slightly larger one available by clicking has a resolution of about 6 miles per pixel. The claimed resolution of the original image is 2 miles per pixel. I am not sure of the provenance of this image.
