'Earthrise' is one of the most important images ever taken. Bill Anders, the Apollo 8 astronaut who shot the photo, recently reflected on it.

For Earth Day, retired NASA astronaut Bill Anders has been sharing the story behind his iconic Earthrise image, captured during an Apollo mission in 1968.

This Earth Day, let’s commit ourselves to invest in our planet. And I don’t mean that figuratively. As the human race continues to degrade nature across the globe, it faces a series of looming crises — from catastrophic climate change, to unprecedented biodiversity decline, to the emergence of lethal new viruses. These crises threaten the political stability, food security, economic development, health, and national security of countries around the world.
