In 1543 Nikolaus Kopernikus published "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" in six volumes. He claimed, that all planets, including Earth, rotate around the sun. The books were banned by the Vatican until 1835.
This is a "historic" shot from Muscle Beach in Venice, CA. The swing set was removed, maybe because of safety concerns? It was a great setup for wild action shots, sometimes creating the illusion that the world is revolving around us.
Explorer #81, thank you for looking.
