Launched in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope is a large, space-based observatory which has revolutionized astronomy by providing unprecedented deep and clear views of the Universe, ranging from our own solar system to extremely remote fledgling galaxies forming not long after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago.

The Pale Blue Dot, redone, and narrated by one of the greatest minds of our century. Astronomer, educator, author, pioneer in exobiology, Director for Planetary Studies, and David Duncan Professor of Cornell University, Dr. Sagan, who was born on Nov 9, 1934, succumbed to pneumonia on December 20, 1996 after a two year battle with bone marrow disease. He fought as tenaciously and courageously for his life as he did for the values of science and democracy. He's a man who will always be remembered with admiration and respect.
