Pale Blue Dot
Future generations will look back on our epoch as the time when the human race finally broke into a radically new frontier--space. In Pale Blue Dot Sagan traces the spellbinding history of our launch into the cosmos and assesses the future that looms before us as we move out into our own solar system and on to distant galaxies beyond. The exploration and eventual settlement of other worlds is neither a fantasy nor luxury, insists Sagan, but rather a necessary condition for the survival of the human race.

Pale Blue Dot is Sagan's follow-up to Cosmos and was published in 1994.

wow. That is incredibly moving. Who says morals need made up religions? There are better reasons to not be such assholes to one another than some made up supreme being watching over us like a babysitter.

What a great find. This might be my new favourite sift. I hope hope hope it gets top 15.

Any time anyone needs a little bit of inspiration watch some Carl Sagan. The sooner we all realise were just a bit of mildly intelligent bacteria on the side of an electron the better off we all are.
