On first impressions this image may look fairly indistinct, but in reality it is perhaps one of the most important photographs ever taken. The tiny blue-white dot, halfway down the brown streak on the right is actually our home planet, the Earth, floating in the dark depths of space, photographed by NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft in 1990 from a record distance of 3.7 billion miles. Astronomer Carl Sagan requested that the picture be taken, and he subsequently reflected that ‘all of human history has happened on that tiny pixel, which is our only home.’

A seemingly "run of the mill" photo, until the explanation is read & understood. This really brings home the concept of being a VERY, VERY SMALL part of the universe, doesn't it ??

I might not object, if you had an ass worth lookin' at, and didn't mind returning the favor.

Just because I am old doesn't mean I have to give up my warped sense of humor does it?
