I check that site every night for the new picture. My favorite ones are the pictures sent back from the Saturn system by the Cassini spacecraft, and the ones of the Martian surface sent back by the Opportunity, Curiosity and Spirit rovers. Every one of those pictures just takes my breath away. I always think, "WOW! That's another planet!" And that thought always just blows my mind.
