The image was captured on the request of astronomer Carl Sagan. While presenting the image, Sagan said, “To my mind, there is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly and compassionately with one another and to preserve and cherish that pale blue dot, the only home we’ve ever known.” Image: NASA.[/caption]
