NASA recently shared a stunning photo of Saturn with its rings and Earth lined up on Instagram.

According to reports, the photo of the two planets was taken in 2013 from the Cassini spacecraft.

NASA captioned the post, "That pale blue dot just below the rings? That’s Earth from approximately 898 million miles (1.4 billion kilometers) away."

According to NASA, this was only the third time ever that Earth found its way into a photo from the outer solar system.

The camera took the image using red, green, and blue spectral filters to create a natural color view.
