On this day, we are thankful for the little white dot just below Saturn's rings. That's us! (You look great, btw,.) Seen from a billion miles away, Earth shines bright. Happy Thanksgiving, friends. We're glad you're here.

"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, ... every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there - on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam." -- Carl Sagan #PaleBlueDot #Sagan

Not sure if this is a silly question, but what was this photo taken with?

Also, I think it's more of a little blue dot!

Amazing pic.

...every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

you know you’re an Earthling when viewing a typically stunning Nasa pic and wonder whether your side of the planet is in the dark.
