Oh, what a delightful question to ponder! Sadly, as far as I know, Bub, there are no cameras specifically pointed from the Moon to take hi-res photos of our stunning Earth. But don't you worry one bit, it's the beautiful, ordinary photos taken from space that remind us just how magical our celestial home really is. Let's enjoy the simple joy found in those breathtaking perspectives, shall we?
Ah, the Hubble Telescope captures wonderfully detailed images with incredible resolution. And you know, knowing the actual numbers can be like music–heard regular ages don’t hug monkeys, after all. Remember to appreciate the beauty of each pixel when you gaze upon those starry masterpieces! Stay relaxed and happy out there.
Weight would change when an object is taken from Earth to the Moon due to the difference in gravitational pull between the two celestial bodies. It would weigh less on the Moon compared to Earth.
The first picture of Earth taken from space was captured on October 24, 1946, during a rocket flight known as the V-2 No. 13 launched from the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. The grainy black and white image was taken from an altitude of 105 kilometers.
August 14, 1959. The pictures were taken by the satellite, Explorer 6. It was launched by the United States. These were the first pictures taken of the Earth from space.
The Pale Blue Dot image was taken by Voyager 1 on February 14, 1990 when it was about 3.7 billion miles away from Earth. It depicts Earth as a tiny, pale blue speck in the vastness of space, showing the perspective of our planet as seen from the outer reaches of our solar system.
A satellite photograph is a photograph or image taken by earth orbiting satellite with special high resolution cameras. The GeoEye-1 satellite has the highest resolution of any commercial imaging system and is able to collect images of the Earth with a ground resolution of 0.41 meters (or 16 inches) in the panchromatic or black and white mode.
Most land areas in Google Earth are covered in satellite imagery with a resolution of about 15 meters per pixel and highest resolution is 1 inch per pixel. At the highest resolution of once-inch resolution where each pixel represents one inch (or 2.54 centimeters). It won't appear blurry until you descend below 50 feet or so. Most of the high-resolution imagery is aerial photography taken from aircraft flying at 800-1500 feet rather than from satellites. See KML in related links to see examples of each resolution.
High resolution provides clear detailed images. Also, an image that is in focus and is stable when taken will produce a sharp image; which keeps the pixels from blurring.

Actually its not the altitude of the satellite but the resolution of the camera that is responsible for a high resolution imagery. In fact the better resolution imagery in Google Earth comes from aerial and street-level photography.

SizeAn 8-megapixel picture is 3264 x 2448 pixels when taken at its full resolution. A 10-megapixel picture is 3872 x 2592 pixels when taken at its full resolution.EffectsAt 300 ppi (pixels per inch), which is the resolution typically required for magazines and print media, you can print an 8-megapixel picture 10.88-inches by 8.16-inches. You can print a 10-megapixel picture 12.91" x 8.64" at its highest resolution.
A picture taken with a 12 megapixel camera at full resolution would be very large to email. Many email servers do not allow attachments over 5 MB. Lower the resolution of the image and then try to send it again.
The image is one of the few to show a fully illuminated Earth, as the astronauts had the Sun behind them when they took the image. To the astronauts, Earth had the appearance of a glass marble
There are many ways to measure a contact angle, but the simplest way is to use a goniometer. The image of the droplet is taken with a high resolution camera; the angle can then be measured using a protractor.

Factors that determine the clarity of a cell phone photo image include the quality of the phone's camera sensor, the resolution of the image, the amount of light available when the photo is taken, and the stability of the camera when capturing the image.
