Da nossa insignificância no Universo




No blogue Notas ao Café, descobri este vídeo e o texto de Carl Sagan, sobre a pequenês do nosso planeta, e consequentemente dos acontecimentos humanos, face à grandiosidade do universo.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.”
Carl Sagan, in «Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space»
