There’s a name for the particular sensation that happens when astronauts first see Earth from space. It’s called the overview effect - a shift in awareness in which the astronaut is awed by the view of Earth. Retired NASA astronauts Nicole Stott and Mike Massimino describe that profound feeling to Brut.
“My first reaction was, this is too beautiful for people to look at and we're not meant to see this, it's like a secret, [and I] actually turned my head. And then I realized that that was probably not the right thing to do, because I was here in space. I should continue to look at the planet. So, I looked back and then I got a bit emotional and I started to tear up a little bit just from the beauty of our planet,” Massimino said.
But the former astronauts’ concern for climate change has enhanced after their experiences. “When it comes to planet Earth, I want people to be aware that we are on a planet. Your planet is your spaceship. It provides you with all the life support you need. And we have to choose to live like crew members on this ship so that we can all survive and thrive,” Stott said.

Michael Collins experienced the same phenomenon. Wonderful points of view.
259 people have seen this, But “despasito” have billions? That’s what is wrong with this planet.
Several ways to explain that:
1. People have no or little preference to space.
2. Default Mode Network, we and society are mostly driven by a part of our brain.
3. People have different personalities and interessts...
4. There's fatalities to space travel and its been expensive until now.
Im writing a book on the term
