Do you remember the famous #Earthrise photo from #Apollo8? On Christmas Eve in 1968, William Anders turned his camera toward Earth and captured the legendary photo. It showed humans a new perspective, with the moon in the foreground and Earth floating in distant space. 🌎🚀🔭📸

Quick explainer I did last night for the other apps. Please watch and share- the Trump administration is trying to bury this arbitrary and cruel restriction of our colleagues’ rights during the holidays. Don’t let them.
