  • This hopefully won't surprise you, but the planet we live on is full of beauty — especially when it's photographed from way, way up above. And while the puny1 human astronauts aboard the International Space Station do an amazing job capturing it themselves, there are plenty of satellites outpacing them with their automatic imaging. If you want to take some of this beauty with you everywhere you go, someone's already doing the work for you on Tumblr by finding and cropping the best shots to fit the aspect ratio of most new phones.

    希望不会令你感到惊讶,但我们生活的这个星球的确充满了美——尤其是当照片从高处往下拍。登上国际空间站的宇航员拍了许多关于地球的照片,而人造卫星通过自动成像系统拍摄的诸多照片可以更美。如果想把这种种美丽带在身边,别急,tumblr上已经有人为您做了这一切。这些最美的照片已被裁剪成适合大多数手机的尺寸。

    In the last few years we've crossed into the age of Retina displays and Quad2 HD smartphones — which means if you haven't stepped up your phone wallpaper game, it's high time you replaced that blurry3 picture of your dog with something that takes full advantage of your screen. Considering we spend so much time looking at them, why wouldn't you want to reflect on this stunning4 orb5 we call home while you're doing it?

    在过去的几年里,我们已经跨入Retina显示屏和四核智能手机高清的时代 - 这意味着,如果你还没有玩转手机壁纸,那么现在就应该换掉手机屏上你狗狗模糊的照片,用能够充分利用屏幕的照片代替。我们已经花了如此之多的时间欣赏风景,为何不同时对这个我们称之为家园的美丽星球有更多思考呢?
