15. Think about this picture when life drags you down... When you feel overwhelmed by your problems, that no matter what you do, nothing will change.
16. Consider this when you are feeling high and mighty… The human being, master of the Earth, at the cutting edge of technology and intellectual advances, Feeling that you and all six billion that make up the human race are the center of the universe
17. And finally for those who consider this vast world in which we live as indestructable, With its great cities, oceans, mountain ranges and continents, an invulnerable planet… Immune to human damage by its sheer size and grandeur…
18. After all, the Earth’s surface covers five hundred and forty million square kilometers! It’s made of six thousand quadrillion tons of rock, and more than one trillion tons of water!
19. Héla aquí, pues: Take a look at this picture. It was taken by Cassini-Juygens, an unmanned spacecraft in 2004, as it reached Saturn’s rings.
20. We are all in this little blue dot. All of our wars… All of our problems… All of our greatness and all of our misery… All of our technology, our art, everything we’ve done… All civilizations, all the fauna and flora… All races, all religions… All governments, countries and states… All of our love… and our hatred… Six billion souls in constant turmoil… Here is our planet.
21. This picture could be used as a lesson in humbleness… Our smallness in the universe, how insignificant our problems and differences are when we look at them on this scale… On the other hand, how frail our planet looks and how important that we care for this little blue dot, … because it’s the only one we have. Makes you think, doesn’t it?
