"Dark Blue Dot" is one of the famous photos of the earth taken by Voyager 1, which shows the earth suspended in the dark background of the solar system. This photo also inspired the famous American astronomer, Dr. Carl Edward Sagan, and wrote "Pale Blue Dot" (the Chinese translation was written by the American astronomer Dr. Hongyi Qiu, and the title of the book ")This book.

Regarding the narration at the end of the film, collect materials and organize them as follows:


Look again at that dot
.

That's here. That's home. That's us.
It 's there. That is our home, our everything.

On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.
In the top of it, everyone you love, everyone you know, you've heard everyone. Everyone in history has spent their life on it.

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.
All our joy and pain, all unequivocal religions, ideologies and economic thoughts, all hunters and robbers, all heroes and cowards, all creators and destroyers of civilizations, all emperors and farmers, all in love Young couples, all parents, hopeful children, inventors and explorers, all spiritual mentors, all corrupt politicians, all "superstars", all "top leaders", all saints and sinners, from humanity From the first day of existence of this race-it all happened on this dust suspended in the sunlight.

    Narrator: [recites extract from Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot, A Vision of the Human Future in Space] 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. Every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there on the mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. How frequent their misunderstandings, how fervent their hatreds. Our imagined self-importance, the delusions 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 all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. Like it or not, for the moment, the earth is where we make our stand.There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits, than this distant image of our tiny world. It underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.
