In contemporary science history there are few minds who have contributed more to the popularization of scientific endeavors than the late, great Carl Sagan. More than a decade after his death, the legacy of Sagan lives on in Cosmos, Pale Blue Dot, and a handful of other elegantly phrased works that brought space science, astronomy, and astrophysics into the lives of millions of people worldwide.
Sagan’s influence continues to live on in internet culture and this stunning animated tribute to Pale Blue Dot, created by Joel Somerfield at the animation studio ORDER, helps to renew Sagan’s eloquent musings of our place in the universe, with simple yet beautiful animation.
