Incredible, thanks for sharing. Between Sagan's narration, and the incredible visuals it was an incredibly powerful message.

This type of stuff makes me very emotional. In part because it's all I thought about growing up: exploring space and the solar system. A place of unimaginable beauty.

But now I realize it will never ever happen. The laws of physics are a bitch. Space is beautiful and peaceful precisely because nothing can exist there.

We will die on Earth, and all our accomplishments and history and discoveries will fade away and the universe won't even notice. We will never meet extraterrestrial life since the distances between us are insurmountable.

The fact that it can't happen almost makes thinking about it sweeter.
