The Pale Blue Dot - Carl Sagan

Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of Human Future in Space 1994

The Pale Blue Dot is a photograph of planet Earth taken in 1990 by Voyager 1 from a record distance of 6 Billion Kilometers away from home, showing it against the vastness of space. By request of Carl Sagan, NASA commanded the Voyager 1 spacecraft, having completed its primary mission and now leaving the solar system, to turn its camera around and to take a photograph of Earth. It was subsequently used by Sagan as the title of his 1994 book of the same name.

UPDATE : The Voyager 1 is on its way to the interstellar space going out on our solar system knocking on the distant stars and ready to encounter other distant civilization somewhere in cosmos. This space craft is destined to wander forever beyond the cosmos.

Even on the comments left on this video, petty prejudices and judgements prevail . . . all for nothing . . .

Do you think it matters who is a saint or who is a coward on this 'pale blue dot in sunbeam'?

The future of our entire species may rest on whether we can put aside all the hatred, judging, the Egos, the ideological and religious hatred that humans harbour against each other . . .

Peace.
