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
original video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PN5J...
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.

Did Ancient Indians had Amazing Scientific Knowledge Already of
1000s of Years ago?
Knowledge of science was known from very ancient times, although
science, as we know today, was not known in India till modern times. The
archaeological remains of the Indus Valley reveal knowledge of applied
sciences. Scientific techniques were used in irrigation, Metallurgy, making of
fired bricks and pottery, and simple recknowing and measurement of areas and
volumes.
It contrast more is know about Aryan achievements in the field of
astronomy, mathamatcis and medicine. Chinese records indicate knowledge of a
dozen books of Indian origin. Brahmagupta's Sidhanta as well as Charaka's and
Susrata's Samhitas were translated int Arabic in the 9th or 10th centuries A.D.
In ancient Indian mathematics was known by the general name of
ganita, which included arthimatcs, geometry, algebra, astronomy and astrology.
It was Aryabhata, who gave a new direction to trigonometry. The decimal system
too was an innovation of India.
By the third century B.C. mathematics, astronomy and medicine
began to develop separately. In the fielf of mathematics ancient Indians made
three distinct contributions, the notation system, the decimal system and the
use of zero. The earliest epigraphic evidence of the use of decimal system
belongs to the fifth century A.D. Before these numerals appeared in the West
they had been used in India for centuries. They are found in the inscriptions
of Ashoka in the third century B.C.
