Selfies have gotten a bit of a bad rep in recent times (we blame you, Kim Kardashian) but this amazing picture proves that sometimes they can be a beautiful thing.

NASA recently marked World Earth Day on April 22nd by asking people to go outside and take their own photo. Their followers on Facebook, Instagram, Flickr and Google Plus duly obliged, sending the snaps via the #GlobalSelfie hashtag and including their whereabouts on the occasion.

Now, the organisation has revealed that more than 35,000 of the photos were submitted and used to create this stunning image of the Earth.

Pretty cool, eh?
