Carl
Sagan gives the best speech ever about humanity and how foolish we behave. Pale
Blue Dot is one of the most important and reflective speeches about the human
condition and our place in the Universe. The Pale Blue Dot is a photograph of
Earth taken in 1990 by the Voyager 1 space probe from a record distance of
about 6 billion kilometers from Earth, as part of the solar system Family
Portrait series of images.
This
video was obtained from +Patrick Mylund Nielsen. He makes some incredibly
powerful videos. Please subscribe to his channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/pmylund

The reason
why this was reposted is to create more exposure to Carl Sagan's message about
the fragility of Earth and the pettiness of war through a cosmic lens. I am
reposting this video because it's my belief that Sagan's message trumps the
relative importance of the video's ownership.
However,
Patrick Mylund Nielsen created an incredibly moving video — for which he
deserves all our thanks. Please subscribe to his channel and say something nice
to show your appreciation.
