When I first watched Carl Sagan’s ‘Pale Blue Dot’ speech on YouTube it felt like a revelation. A picture of our Earth taken by the Voyager spacecraft. Earth is just 1 pixel across!

What else has made you feel insignificant in an instance?

I've not seen that but saw the pic in a thing about the communication with the voyager probe and how it has about 8 years of power left

Oh jeez! Don’t remind me. I’ll have to think of a longer song (than mambo number 5) to add everyone’s name in. Perhaps Beautiful South - ‘song for whoever’

An excerpt from Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot:

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The photograph is mind blowing!

Wonko - quick question, your moniker is "Plain old Wonko" in order to distiguish yourself from Wonko The Sane - amiright?
