Simulation of our Solar System through the Habitable Worlds Observatory This image was captured from a timelapse video showing what it would look like if NASA's proposed Habitable Worlds Observatory imaged our own Solar System from a distance of 40 light-years. The Sun's light is blocked by a coronagraph. Earth is visible as a faint blue-green smudge to the left of the Sun. R. Juanola Parramon, N. Zimmerman, A.
