The Earth Found at Last

[krpalmer]

After just about forgetting about promises that the DSCOVR satellite would return regular full-disc images of the Earth, another "Astronomy Picture of the Day" pointed me to a site that already provides enough of an archive to show both poles pointed at the sun. At first glance, it seemed that archive is more accessible using iPad Safari than Macintosh Safari, but I remembered the several different browsers I keep on my computer just in case I need them. (Then, I followed a more roundabout route to the site, and all of a sudden it was working in my regular browser.) Hopefully, I'll be able to remember to keep up with the site, even if not every day will show the moon's shadow tracking across the Earth.
