Apollo image obtained
from Lunar Orbit

EPIC image obtained
from Lagrange-1 Orbit

The major cloud structure is very similar 44 years after the Apollo picture was obtained using a Hasselblad film camera.  This is consistent with the large set of EPIC images, which shows that the large cloud structures are persistant, but vary with the seasons. Smaller features change. Because of the different viewpoints, the image perspective differs a little. The image angles are similar as can be seen from the positions of the specular reflection near the southeast coast of Africa.  The Antarctic-ice coastline appears to have some significant differences.
