Someone posted this another site and I though I would post it here. It is an amazing photo.

http://www.americanbridge.com/sunset%20from%20space.htm


Edit: that site must not have liked the traffic, it now says the page can not be found. Here is the picture without the accompanying information. This photo was taken by the ill-fated crew of the space shuttle Columbia.

I borrowed the following link from another forum also (thanks kevin!) and it is a photo archive of pictures posted by NASA.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day Archive

Some great stuff in there for your desktop wallpaper. For those who would like to do that you can right click the picture and select Set as background but do not select Set as desktop item as it can cause you problems and there is no need.
