I'm sure many of us have seen Avatar and seen the amazing assortment of colours pandora has on display, and wondered why we don't have that on earth, why are we stuck with the plain old 'earth-tones'. Well not everything conforms to this, from Space, many things on earth are amazingly beautiful. Have a look at some of the photos taken by Nasa's Goddard telescope.

These are really amazing, they really demonstrate the true message of AVATAR. Not to be depressed at the unreality of Pandora, but to realize that earth used to be like Pandora, and do our best to make changes for good. I do understand PAD though, had it pretty bad myself.
