Artist's Comments

After reading "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan, watching a few of his interviews and some of the series and of course "Contact", I thought such a dedication to one of the 20th Century's most important individuals was warranted from me.

The text has been edited down somewhat, and i REALLY recommend you search and at least read the entirety of his passage, written upon receiving an image from Voyager of our tiny world, suspended in a sunbeam of light (reflected from the probes equipment).

rendered in 3dmax and composed by myself. :)

I really like the atmosphere model you're using on the Earth, did you make it yourself? What references did you use?

Great quote again, though I've heard this one it is also one of my favorites from Sagan.

That is an absolutely beautiful image.

Every time I read that passage from Carl, I get a lump in my throat. I miss him.
