A pale blue dot.
On certain days just when the night comes I tend to see how beautiful our sky, the brightness of the stars and the moon, I can find a little peace and imagine that I am in another place although I have always taken into account something that attracts me Much curiosity is to think How would our planet from space?, And if to see it could make change our way of thinking and seeing everything that surrounds us in our world.
This question led me to inquire on the internet about space travel to calm a little the curiosity that I had and I could find something that attracted even more my attention which is named perspective effect.
Let's start by knowing that it is the perspective effect: it is a cognitive shift in consciousness, reported by some astronauts during spaceflight when they first observe the planet being orbited.
Although not all astronauts suffer from this effect, for some of them that if they get to suffer they totally change the way they think, almost always happens on the first trip they perform because of the way in which they See our planet in the first person as a unique experience from space, watching it almost immediately as a fragile balloon full of life floating in the immense emptiness.
Astronauts who suffer from this effect ensure that borders disappear, flags, religions, politics and problems that divide us as individuals tend not to seem important.
Fact that causes the need arise between them to create a society in which its main objective is to protect, care and want above all and above all this so called: A pale blue dot.
Some of the astronauts who have suffered this effect are: RustySchweikart, Edgar Mitchell, Tom Jones, Chris Hadfield and Mike Massimino.
There is a photograph of the Earth taken in 1990 by the Voyager 1 spacecraft from a distance of 6000 million kilometers. This photograph has the name A pale blue dot called the famous astronomer Carl Sagan in feeling Amazed by the beauty of our world.
Our planet Earth tends to be small view from space but seeing how wonderful our world can make a radical change in ourselves, since we ourselves are our worst enemy and that with all respect there is no proof that we receive help From somewhere else in case you need it. It is the only place we know so far where there is life. There is no other place, at least in the near future in which we as a species could inhabit. Maybe visit certain planets but Colonize ?, I still do not think so.
I could say that that point that we see there is considered as our home. All the living beings that we know and want: people, animals and plants live in that place. It is our responsibility to treat each other more kindly and to care for and love that pale blue point full of life.
