The fact is influenced by the ability to see the human eye. However, if a satellite photograph, Earth will appear blue as human beings imaginable. The resulting blue color is usually the result of image processing.


The fact that the image of the blue Earth has been produced by the world's space agencies, one of which is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
