Patchelicious Posted September 6, 2016 Share Which one, is your favourite, or do consider the most iconic? Earth from Space is mineEarth from Space is amazing. However, I can never look at Tankman without myself becoming immersed in thought as to what must have happened in his mind, to be so gatvol, so brave. He didn't do it for the picture, it was just a regular guy who had enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course "iconic" means different things to different folks but the fact that it inspired those thoughts in you must give it iconic status. Cool!

Piston ZA Posted September 7, 2016 Share Another iconic photo for me is the "Pale Blue Dot". Taken from 6 billion kms from Earth. Accompanied by Carl Sagan's reflection on the image. We succeeded in taking that picture, and, if you look at it, you see a dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever lived, lived out their lives. The aggregate of all our joys and sufferings, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilizations, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every hopeful child, every mother and father, every 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. 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 in 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 the dot on scarcely indistinguishable inhabitants of some other corner of the dot. 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. [...] To my mind, there is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly and compassionately with one another and to preserve and cherish that pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.— Carl Sagan, speech at Cornell University, October 13, 1994 sawystertrance, Wannabe, Prince and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
