Description
"Well, here we are, back at last...
...Look again at that... 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, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, 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...
...It is our home and we need to look after it a lot better than we have been because it is the only home we have and the only home we ever will have."
Wanted to get this in for Earth Day.

And for how long will it still be habitable - maybe by the time this ship would be launched there'll be no-one here? Great image, characters and text!

Very cool and stylish render, and the late Dr. Sagan's words seem to ring as true as ever. 👍
