I am always wanting to see a picture of earth from space. I don't mean particular places. I just want to see the whole picture. If you can give me a good site, I'll give up the points!

I want to see current pictures of the entire earth. Not just a specific place. I don't want aerial photos. I want pictures of the earth from space.

You can view either a map of the Earth showing the day and night regions at this moment, or view the Earth from the Sun, the Moon, the night side of the Earth, above any location on the planet specified by latitude, longitude and altitude, from a satellite in Earth orbit, or above various cities around the globe.

Images can be generated based on a full-colour image of the Earth by day and night, a topographical map of the Earth, up-to-date weather satellite imagery, or a composite image of cloud cover superimposed on a map of the Earth, a colour composite which shows clouds, land and sea temperatures, and ice, or the global distribution of water vapour. Expert mode allows you additional control over the generation of the image. You can compose a custom request with frequently-used parameters and save it as a hotlist or bookmark item in your browser.
In addition to the Earth, you can also view the Moon from the Earth, Sun, night side, above named formations on the lunar surface. or as a map showing day and night. You can also make expert and custom images of the Moon.

Try Google Earth. You'll like it. If you type in your address, the picture will start with a satellite picture of the earth and zoom into a picture of your house. Have fun!

I think you can try google earth. You have to download it. You can view the whole earth with this! You can zoom in really close to things. You can find locations, and plan trips w/ it. you can't zoom in and see your yard, but there are some places you can zoom in and see. It's really cool.

Best sites are
1. http://maps.google.com - go to any place you want to see, and then click on Satellite view on the top right hand of interactive map or click on hybrid to view the map with name on it.
2. http://local.live.com/ - gives very good view from space, but as you zoom in the quality fades out. Here too click on aerial to get bit original view from space (computer graphics used).
