Wonderful Blue Planet!

Appreciate your home for one

moment!

Appreciate your home for one

moment!

Our children’s heritage!

(68)

Now you will see a picture for those

moments when you feel life is

overwhelming.

When you think your problems are

enormous…

…

and when you think there is a immense

difference between the things you and

those you don’t,

(69)

It’s also a picture when you have moments

as a human being you think you are powerful

and magnificent…

You are Homo Sapiens, Master of the

creation,

At the zenith of your technological power !

And you feel that with the other six billions

persons we are …

…

(70)

And finally…

…

a picture for those moments when you think

the world is so big where you live that it is

indestructible.

With its great cities, all the oceans, mountain

ranges and continents…

Invulnerable Planet…

…

insensitive, with its size and greatness,

With our actions as men accomplishing… or

not

Insensitive

(71)

Because, Earth has five hundred millions

square kilometres of surface!

Six thousands quadrillions tons of rocks!

And more then one thousand trillions tons of

water!…

Héla aquí, pues:

Contemplate this

picture for a few

moments

It was taken by the Cassini-Juygens

probe, in 2004, when it arrived at the

rings of Saturn

(73)

We are all in this little blue point

All our wars…

All our problems

All our greatness

and misery….and misery… All our technology,

All our technology,

our art, our advances…our art, our advances… All our civilizations,

All our civilizations,

all our wildlife and flora all our wildlife and flora All races, religions…

All races, religions…

All governments, countries and states

All our love… and hate…

Six billions souls in constant agitation…

This is your planet

(74)

If we want, we can take this picture like a lesson in

humility…

And like a double message:

On one hand ,

how little we are in this universe,

with our problems and our differences,

when we see them on this scale when we see them on this scale But on the other side,

But on the other side,

how fragile is our planet,

And the importance of taking care of

this little blue point, this little blue point, …

…because its the only home we have.because its the only home we have It does make you think, no?
