First Image of Earth From Space
Captured by a V-2 rocket over New Mexico in 1946
The first image of Earth from space was taken on 24 October 1946, when a modified V-2 rocket launched from White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico carried a 35 mm motion-picture camera above the Kármán line. The grainy black-and-white frames showed Earth’s curved horizon against the darkness of space.
