When Earth Became Home From 250 Miles Away
Floating 250 miles above Earth aboard the International Space Station, something unexpected happened. Looking down at our planet-a luminous blue marble suspended in infinite darkness-the concept of "home" suddenly expanded. Florida, where I'd spent countless childhood hours chasing damselflies across airfield runways, was just one tiny piece of a much larger picture. The entire planet was home. Every continent, every ocean, every person breathing beneath that impossibly thin blue atmosphere. No borders were visible from up there, only the natural features that truly define our world: swirling white clouds, deep blue oceans, golden deserts, and that delicate atmospheric line separating all life from the void. This shift in perspective-what space philosophers call the Overview Effect-reveals three undeniable truths: we live on a planet, we are all Earthlings, and the only border that truly matters is the fragile shield of air keeping us alive. Everything else we've invented to separate ourselves dissolves when viewed from space.
