The Internet Went Meme Crazy with This Photo from NASA

NASA recently released this incredible photo that captured the "dark side of the moon" -- and it seems people have a lot to say about it.

The image was taken during DSCOVR satellite voyage, which shows planet Earth from one million miles away.

"These images were taken between 3:50 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. EDT on July 16, showing the moon moving over the Pacific Ocean near North America," the agency said in a statement. "The North Pole is in the upper left corner of the image, reflecting the orbital tilt of Earth from the vantage point of the spacecraft."

But regardless of all scientific facts here, the internet is going absolutely crazy over the amazing picture ... just not in the way you'd imagine.

Instead of marveling at the beauty of a rarely-seen natural wonder, people have begun photoshopping the moon into things like:

The Michael Jordan crying meme:

And even a gorilla:

Thanks internet, you never let us down.

Keep up the good work.
