I enjoy that one also.

It was an interesting project - trying to find a time of the year when north America was facing the camera while the Milky Way was in the background. I think I like the first two the best, but # 13 is interesting.

Open Google Earth Pro, zoom way out, Move the time bar and rotate the planet until you get the composition you want.

Print Screen, paste into new image (I use paint.net) edit however you like. I usually resize to 800 pixels.

All I can think of with that song is "Con Air" the 90's movie. (lol)
