It is somewhat paradoxical that man's new ability to fly above the atmosphere and voyage in space, has provided him with a new and valuable way to appreciate his Earth. From orbital altitudes the eye and lens do not see the emotions and passions that daily concern mankind on the surface. Economic, political, and sociological tensions are invisible. But the changes that both natural and human forces bring about on the Earth's surface can best be grasped from the respectful distances inherent in Earth orbits. Photographs such as this book contains increase our understanding of the relationships between our activities and our environment.".
