Surreal, absurd, outlandish, preposterous... But there it is. The entire earth clearly reflected off the side of a car. [1920x1080]

Is there a window in the cargo bay?

Nope - the car is just fully exposed.

The vacuum of space doesn’t have an effect on the car?

I'm sure it's having an effect, but not one that is visible via our view of it.

It's not like a lack of atmospheric pressure would really affect the mostly solid materials that make up a car, the liquid in any LCDs would probably boil off pretty quickly, I don't know what else would really visibly change though.
