Pale Blue Dot


They say it gives you perspective. They say it's humbling. Character-building. Carl Sagan himself said, "There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world," and a pretty argument he makes, "to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known".

And yet, I chuse only to amuse myself that I live on a mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam.
