  1. The world got very small in the news this week...
    So I went looking outward.

    Voyager is still exploring.
    Artemis II is pushing further than we’ve gone in decades.
    And even the astronauts watched Project Hail Mary before heading out, because art and reality still talk to each other.

    Exploration isn’t escape.
    It’s extension.

  2. "From up here, you look like one thing. Homo Sapiens is all of us, no matter where you're from or what you look like. This shows what we can do not just when we put our differences aside but when we put our differences together."

    astronaut,

  3. RE: fediscience.org/@petergleick/1

    We have had this PoV for 60 years.

    We've seen #Earthrise

    We've seen #PaleBlueDot

    We know we live on an impossibly beautiful planet, in just the right orbit around just the right sun so that conditions will be just right for intelligent life to evolve.

    We know this because I am imagining these words in my head, typing them, and you – hundreds or thousands of kilometres away – are reading them.
    After only a few seconds.

    We know all of this.

    Yet we are still a colossal fuckup.

  4. "GPS"?

    Global Positioning System?

    *Global*.

    Whether I heard or interpreted it correctly or not here's me thinking wow, I won't be seeing anything *but* global positioning. Ever.

    Or doing it at 15,000 miles per hour. :)

  5. A timely reminder from the immortal #CarlSagan of how absurd it is that we cause so much suffering to control this infinitesimal fragment of the universe.

    Virtually all of Humanity's history, innovation and creativity is a blue pixel on a 1970's camera.

    Stick a selfie mirror on this view and you have everything we have ever done.

    We're not that important in the grand scale of things.

  7. On this day in 1990, the Voyager 1 space probe took a photo of our planet from approximately 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) away.

    "Commissioned by NASA and resulting from the advocacy of astronomer and author Carl Sagan, the photograph was interpreted in Sagan's 1994 book, Pale Blue Dot, as representing humanity's minuscule and ephemeral place amidst the cosmos."

  8. "Plans to end global warming hinge on driving net greenhouse gas emissions to zero, plus or minus a few gigatonnes (Gt). It’s not going well.

    CO2 emissions hit an all-time high last year, and for the first time average temperatures on Earth rose 1.5 °C above preindustrial levels.

    To hold warming below 2 °C, a total of 525 to 755 Gt of carbon dioxide will need to be removed from the atmosphere by 2100. That total will increase if global emissions do not start falling quickly.

    From 2019 to 2023, just 9 Gt of CO2 was removed, 99.9 percent through managed forestry.

    In other words, nine gigatonnes down, 746 gigatonnes to go...

  9. Nasceva oggi nel 1934 il grande scienziato e divulgatore Carl Sagan, che convinse la NASA a fare voltare la Voyager 1 per fotografare il "pallido puntino blu", la Terra vista da sei miliardi di chilometri di distanza. Il testo che scrisse per la foto richiama ad una coscienza planetaria che purtroppo ancora non abbiamo. Ma la raggiungeremo.

    Grazie Carl, le stelle che ti hanno sempre chiamato, da tempo le hai raggiunte.

  10. I just thought about this great speech of Carl Sagan: Pale Blue Dot. And therefore I listened to it again and I think you should do so too youtube.com/watch?v=wupToqz1e2g

  11. We stand at a crossroads of disruption — EVs, AI, renewables, cellular ag, 3D-printed homes, robots. For many it sparks fear without hope. But disruption isn’t the sunset — it’s the dawn. 🌍✨ #EnergyTransition #AI #EVs #Future #PaleBlueDot #Disruption #Lithium #BESS #Solar #Wind #Energy

  15. Nell'ultima puntata di "Ci vuole una scienza" Matteo Caccia legge il testo scritto da Carl #Sagan sulla famosa immagine "Pale blue dot", che compie 35 anni. Da ascoltare! 🌍

  16. Happy 35th Anniversary to the image that forever shifted our perspective. And thank you, #CarlSagan. The #PaleBlueDot reminds us of our shared fragility and unity on this tiny speck suspended in a sunbeam. I’ll never tire of sharing this vision of humility and hope, until we truly grasp its meaning.
