I think its cool how Dr. Sagan spent years trying to convince NASA and the JPL of turning the Voyager camera around to face the earth when it was past the orbit of Pluto. He finally did and it was amazing. He wanted to show the people of Earth how small and fragile we were in the context of space. From that far out... All of our being, is nothign but a plae blue dot. What a visionary.
