Pale Blue Dot

In the movie "An Inconvenient Truth", Mr. Al Gore mentions about the pale blue dot. The Pale Blue Dot is nothing but the photograph of OUR Earth taken by Voyager1 in 1990 from some 4 billion miles away. Carl Sagan, an american astronomer and astrobiologist, was inspired by this photograph. In a video/slideshow that I found on YouTube, he has narrated the description of earth in such beautiful words, you HAVE to spare 6 minutes to listen to this, PLEASE. Thank You! :)

Don't you wanna save Treasure?
