introduction
welcome on planet earth! this is a screen saver for windows
which darkens the screen, and displays images of the earth
as seen from space together with quotes from shakespeare's
works.
i wrote this for a very good friend of mine. so, wherever
you may be, this is for you.
good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow,
that i shall say good night till it be morrow.
(william shakespeare, romeo and juliet ii.ii.)
the images are from nasa, i got most of them from their
web-site at www.nasa.gov
