My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #975

In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #975 from the issue of January 19, 2026, two astronauts standing on the moon look up at the earth while one takes a photo of it with his smart phone. The astronaut who is taking the photo speaks. The drawing is by Tommy Siegel.

"I'll post this once I think of a good caption."

These captions didn't reach escape velocity:

"I can see my house from here."
"Get in the picture with everyone else."
"That's something you don't see every day."
"Now watch me cool it down with a filter setting."
"Don't they look miserable?"
