[al:Pale Blue Dot] |
[00:02.31] |
From this distant vantage point |
[00:04.80] |
The Earth might not seem of any particular interest |
[00:09.50] |
But for us |
[00:11.08] |
it's different |
[00:12.85] |
Consider again that dot |
[00:15.01] |
That's home |
[00:18.26] |
That's us |
[00:19.39] |
|
[01:18.43] |
Everyone you love |
[01:20.45] |
Everyone you konw |
[01:21.65] |
Everyone you exer heard of |
[01:23.44] |
Everyone human being who exer was |
[01:26.03] |
Lived out their lives |
[01:28.82] |
The aggregate of our joy and suffring |
[01:31.83] |
Thousands of confident religions,ideoogies and economic doctrines |
[01:37.03] |
Every hunter and forager |
[01:39.77] |
Every hero and coward |
[01:40.88] |
Every crrator and destroyer of civilisation |
[01:44.59] |
Every kind and peasant |
[01:46.36] |
Every young couple in love |
[01:48.71] |
Every mother and father,hopeful child |
[01:51.60] |
Inventor and explorer |
[01:54.21] |
Every teacher of morals |
[01:56.13] |
Every corrupt politician |
[01:58.60] |
Every "superstar" |
[02:00.17] |
Every "supreme leader" |
[02:02.08] |
Every saint and sinner in the history of our species |
[02:06.08] |
Lived there |
[02:07.76] |
On the mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam |
[02:11.96] |
|
[03:04.80] |
It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience |
[03:11.27] |
there is perhaps no batter demonstration of human conceits |
[03:15.29] |
that this distant image of our tiny world |
[03:19.63] |
to me the underscores our responsibility |
[03:23.43] |
to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve |
[03:27.12] |
and preserve and cherish the pale blue dot |
[03:30.57] |
the only home we've ever known |
