Peacewarts: Universal Understars 101 - The Pale Blue Dot (Class 3)

We travel six billion kilometers away to examine the Pale Blue Dot—the most distant photograph ever taken of our home. We explore Carl Sagan’s philosophy on "human conceits" and how this extreme perspective serves as a tool for dismantling nationalistic ego. We also look at the massive cultural impact of the Cosmos series, which reached 500 million people with a shared vision of our place in the universe.

Learning Topics:

• Carl Sagan and theCosmos series
• ThePale Blue Dot (Voyager 1)
• Human conceits vs. cosmic perspective
• Global viewership and shared stories
• Planetary stewardship
