"The Mercury-bound MESSENGER spacecraft took 358 images during a gravity assist swingby of Earth on Aug. 2, 2005. Those images were sequenced into an MPEG movie (original, w/o date and time | original, w/date and time | Coral cache, w/o annotation) showing the view from MESSENGER as it departed Earth."

It's a fantastic movie, though; maybe more people will see it because of this post, even if it does get deleted.

I searched for "messenger" to find the original, by the way.
