🚀 Historic Image: The First Color Photo of Earth from Space
On September 20, 1967, the DODGE satellite transmitted color images of our planet to Earth for the first time. This was a breakthrough, opening up a completely new, vibrant view of humanity's home. Previously, the images had been black and white, and seeing blue oceans and white clouds in color was a true miracle.
Today’s Movie Poster. 1960
A man lets a former flame fall to her death rather than let her interfere with his new relationship, but her ghost returns to disrupt his impending nuptials.

"The Invisible Man's Revenge" was released on this day in 1944. Classic Universal Monster film (inspired by the H G. Welles novel) from director Ford Beebe and screenwriter Bertram Millhauser.
Highlights: Excellent special effects by John Fulton; exciting Hans J. Salter score.
The fifth and final film in Universal's original "Invisible Man" series was met with audience indifference (barely doubling its production budget), but was a huge improvement over the prior two entries.
While the character would later return in two successful Abbot and Costello movies, not having Griffin appear in either one of Universal's popular monster rally pictures ("House of Frankenstein" and "House of Dracula") remains a confounding missed opportunity.
ICYMI: In 1978, a Polish publishing house released a series of comics based on Erich von Däniken's crackpot "theories." Beautifully drawn by Bogusław Polch, the comics were later published in the UK as 'The Gods from Outer Space.'
