Earth - The Pale Blue Dot

[SpazzyMcGee1337]

The twilight beaches and snowy peaks are beautiful, but a little more visual diversity would have helped.

[RJL738]

The Earth is a million times smaller than our Sun wich is just a star and a point of light from a small distance away, our entire world all that is readily accessable is less than a million of a point of light, The home of the human race is several decible places behind a single point, thanks you for this.

[abhimatgautam]

Great video to see on Sagan’s birthday. Gives me hope.

[comoc1]

8 people are the reason it will take us so long to achieve the increadible goal that Mr. Sagan believed in.

[steviewonder2828]

@TheFederation99 Its "Heaven and Hell" by Vangelis - Always happy to help someone else who believes in the Sagan

[timmy12370]

pcgamer999! 

[ptroinks]

I'd like to hear Morgan Freeman read this speech!

[Dinosaurmannen]

@ptroinks yeah, that would be cool. but its kinda like haveing michael jackson sing the doors. both are great, but its kind of Sagans stuff. if you like Morgen Freeman in an epic aspect, then check this out "Through the wormhole"

[TheFederation99]

OMG I've spent so long trying to find the song for this video, can anyone help me please?? :)

[lampard554]

@TheFederation99 the song is Earth by Michael Marrantz the same guy who made the video.

[afcurry]

That was awesome, very well done!

[Sypher49SH]

Who the fuck dislikes this video? Carl Sagan is the best

[mojca22]

this gives me the chills....

[bymacorg]

Cool! What intervalometer did you use? If your camera has infrared, you or someone who want to try time-lapse photography, could use an infrared time-lapse remote like this one: tempus.bymac.org

[lucasisking]

8 people have minds that are closed for business

[SirPeibol]

what is the name of the theme?

[WittyDub11]

Is there a version of this without instrumentals?

[anine95]

Amazing editing !!!

[xi3easTix]

thumbs up if lockerz bought u here

[cinemakid]

Shared on Facebook in celebration of Earth Day! Thanks Carl, you are missed.

[irrastrategy]

They should give this a award, it was perfectly made

[gotfinnegan]

That Rebecca Black video has roughly, at the time of my posting this comment, 2700 times the views that this video does. Just pointing that out. Draw your own conclusions about the world we live in.

[MrConrad1993]

@gotfinnegan Our civilisation would simply never be where it is today if we didn't have a diverse, adaptable species. The scientists, engineers, astronauts would not have the oppotunities they have unless we all work together. Earth is getting there, give it time.

[Cri354]

@gotfinnegan Its always the few that change the world.

[nathankoren]

@gotfinnegan Conclusion: still plenty of rivers to cross...

[ulfnordquuist]

Wow!

[weatherman182]

this should be a motivational speech in every school

[ijansz]

Makes me Sad to think one day earth will be lifeless

[sweetooth99]

can someone give me the text to everything he says in this video? thanks!

[BrutallyHonestGamers]

@sweetooth99 Text of Vid. Thumbs Up so everyone will see. Just replace the [dot]'s with periods obviously...

[TZMchapterKiel]

I cried

[rookieshooter1]

This is my favorite version of Pale Blue Dot posted on youtube. It speaks of our possibilities, too bad we won't be around to see it.... I wish all those who draw blood in the name of their gods take a moment and listen to the words of this great thinker. There are so many things we could be doing with our resources than killing one another.

[lordknives1111]

"...how many rivers we had to cross, before we found, are way" greatest phrase in the history of humanity

[kylieemaree]

Ricky Gervais brought me here :)

[KodierungHerz]

@kylieemaree really? how?

[KodierungHerz]

I assume there's smart, racional, kind, pacifist people watching this video, and you know waht? we need to start reproducing, now, like fucking bunnies, for the sake of mankind.

[kylieemaree]

@KodierungHerz Good idea - and all the offspring can fight for a scrap of the resources. Clever!

[KodierungHerz]

@kylieemaree No, all the intelligent, rational, educated, environmentally conscious offspring can research freakin cold fusion, stem cells, transgenic crops or whatever.

[whitepanther84]

I don't think i'll ever get bored of this, i listen to it probably once a week

[cruelmaggi]

great voice too ;)

[cruelmaggi]

beautiful and well done! though, it could be seen from a nihilistic point of view, as pure irony. thats what makes it so fascinating. could work as a commercial to ;)

[adrianandshane]

beautiful

[AlphaStrikeSquadron]

Science cannot exist without religion, and religion cannot exist without science.

[selearemus]

@AlphaStrikeSquadron who say's that?

we already do

[idine08]

@AlphaStrikeSquadron ludacris statement,

[Bill679]

This moved me. Thank you Carl, and thank you for creating and posting!

[michaelmarantz]

I did create the music from scratch.

[SirAndras]

What's that wonderful piano? I want sauce!

Carl Sagan is amazing. Gotta read that book soon.

[pintkobe]

Genesis Chapter 11 comes to mind. Nice-looking video, but a pathetic ode to naturalistic humanism.

[idine08]

@pintkobe  bah.

[pintkobe]

Genesis Chapter 11 comes to mind. Nice-looking video, but a pathetic ode to naturalistic humanism. 

[jagovRUS]

@pintkobe You sad, poor, pathetic, lost little mind ;)

[flimsygirly]

What song is used here?

[moneyman10k]

@flimsygirly you and I both were wondering. sources say he composed and played it himself, but it does sound a lot like many other piano themes I've heard in commercials

[LuxferusAnimus7]

It is a shame that more people don't think this way. I truly hope that we have a dynamic change in our perspective both to the inward and outward. So that we can truly appreciate who we are as a species and grow to ensure our prosperity and our survivability.

[WindsorAdelUTD]

Outstanding 

[Akshayk7]

beautiful video. Carl Sagan was a true Icon of the century.

[irrastrategy]

this was moving

[whitepanther84]

this should have replaced the queen's speech

[polystyleneman]

Bit weird, innit?

Thanks for sharing, Ricky. Always love some Pale Blue Dot. Moving stuff.

Oh! He's only gone a written it down!

[Spencer121583]

Why would you sell a bed without a mattress? That's like a car without an engine

[undrugged]

@Spencer121583 ...thats not a bed...it's a climbing frame.

[cutes22]

We went to the country to see the wildlife. We saw a pheasant, a rabbit and a fox...all dead in the road.

[Xen1aserman]

No ones made me tear up by just talking before.

Amazing.

[Shisner]

wow

[Qpaxchan]

4 alien, theirs truly, watched this video.

[bromandude89]

I would like to see this video on the front page. [7]

[kanz10hi]

Whats the song name? :O

[dahlimama1]

I have read that Carl was a heavy pot smoker. I wonder what he would have thought and written without smoking pot. Not that it such a bad thing, but anything in excess creates unbalance.

[seanwise93]

@dahlimama1 lies and slander!

[breakthechain888]

i love karl pilkington and i love carl sagan. am i missing something though? i am seeing all these karl related comments, howcome? did karl watch this video and give his thoughts on it in a podcast and i missed or something? let a dude know, internet friends.

[undrugged]

@breakthechain888 it was linked via Ricky Gervais' blog.

[DaSungandSoul1223]

There are a lot of people who have the mindset that people are all bad, that, by nature, we are fated to destroy ourselves...and yet, with cautious minds like Carl Sagan, and the many great hopeful minds like MLK, Gandhi, Michael Shermer, etc...these people tell me otherwise.

These is no time to make enemies.

[KEYSERH0RZE]

I feel so small.

[FloodPower]

should have a billions and billions of views.

[kanz10hi]

Wow, this is amazing!

[siimxn]

Epic.

[mitsk2002]

His voice irks me for some reason.

[MrWajax]

Carl Sagan was truly an icon. He was my childhood hero, he's what got me interested in astronomy. He'll be dearly missed. Thumbs up & favorite.

[ThatFoolishBoy]

@MrWajax a hero to us all he left a message for all of us and that is that we have a future all of us together

Why do gay men need magazines with nobs in em? Why can't they just look at their own nobs?

[vaiotron]

[squirefong]

She boiled her brain.

[bensimps123]

@dannylavelle whats your problem with the very successful comedian actor and director ? because he created 2 really great sit coms that are known around the world?

[dannylavelle]

@bensimps123 Im addressing the balance cos i feel a tad sorry for mister K Pilkio So Gervais is a massive CUUUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bensimps123]

@dannylavelle karl dont give a shit and why would he ,he's made lots of money thanks to gervais and is now an millionaire

[mattsallie]

Head like a f*cking orange!!

Uumans are a virus, Mr Anderson....

Let's just hope that we don't obliterate Earth with nukes or....oil leaks....before we take off and colonize/pollute other planets.

[AnnieJazzy]

...the right one is prone to stones...

[MrSammo1]

Unless we outgrow the monetary system all we will see is doom.

[pudseypumper]

They found a dishwasher on Mars.

[beefweef]

i hate it when people say "umans" instead of "humans." you're not special just because you think dropping the H makes you sound intelligent. you're a fucking mong, like K-man Pilkoids.

[F1RacerRR]

Boiled her brain.

[Tom4Cheese]

I think out of respect for such a beautiful video we shouldnt post Karl Pilkingtons none sense, but on the other hand...

HEAD LIKE A FUCKING ORANGE..... CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNT

[DaftEels]

This is fucking amazing

Wetlknee Houston

[Par1sInFlames]

i bet the moon was better

[turdmullett]

Sagan didn't live long enough to see the growing multitudes of dim-witted, unmotivated, fatties propagating in large numbers. We will adapt and change, but I wonder if he would still feel that we would become something more capable and prudent.
