Dunno what happened to your NASA link there, perhaps you should read the FAQ.
Damn crappy OS eh? Ah well, at least you didn't pay for it.
Having explored NASA a bit, it seems you can get a decent colour sat pic of the UK at least daily, bit of a faff to find mind.
Mission Specialist Bruce McCandless II, is seen further away from the confines and safety of his ship than any previous astronaut has ever been. This space first was made possible by the Manned Manuevering Unit or MMU, a nitrogen jet propelled backpack. After a series of test maneuvers inside and above Challenger's payload bay, McCandless went "free-flying" to a distance of 320 feet away from the Orbiter. This stunning orbital panorama view shows McCandless out there amongst the black and blue of Earth and space. (02/12/1984)
As much as I'd love to go into space I don't think I'd like to go outside the vehicle, just in case I ran out of Nitrogen.
