 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 attached video’s accompanying words are spoken by Carl Sagan, and written almost 24 years ago.

Thanks John.
