This excerpt from Carl Sagan’s book “Pale Blue Dot” (1994) was inspired by an image taken, at Sagan’s suggestion, by Voyager 1 on Feb 14, 1990.
The earth is shown from a distance of about 6 billion km (3.7 billion miles).
Voyager 1 had completed its primary mission, and was leaving the Solar System when, at the request of Carl Sagan, it was commanded by NASA to turn its camera around, and take one last photo of Earth across a great expanse of space.
The video’s accompanying words spoken by Sagan, and written almost 24 years ago, are still relevant today.
Sensitively felt … brilliantly said … please watch this … and contemplate with us … “The Pale Blue Dot”

The Bible was made illegal in the year 1229 and for centuries Christians could be tortured or killed for owning a bible. The printing press changed that forever but Satan and his servants did’t give up, ever since Copernicus and Galileo the argument has been building that the Bible is fiction.
If we are spinning 1,000 mph on a “pale blue dot”, the bible is fiction. If the bible is true then we live under a “firmament” and in an age of “signs and lying wonders and… strong delusion” (2 Thessalonians 2).
I declare that the Bible is true. We are not spinning 1,000 mph, or going around the sun 66,600 mph, on a tilt 66.6 degrees off the 90. The horizon always rises to the eye of the observer, it is not dropping at a rate of 0.666’/mile^2. To believe such nonsense is strong delusion indeed.
Alex … thank you for responding. Our understanding of Deity and Universe and Eternity and, and, and … is rich and varied among all of God’s children. Your understanding and belief may not be mine but I honor it. Thanks for writing. Best wishes … Wayne
