Yeniçağ writer Sedat Kaya talked about the amazing photo sent by NASA in 1990. Kaya shared the photo taken from 6.4 billion kilometers away from the Earth.
In the rock inscription, it explains what fiefdoms, kings, sultans and dictators have passed away from this world, and underlines who will die first.
In his article, Kaya said, “What are we dealing with in our world, which is not the size of a grain of dust in a huge space of 14 billion years? Wars, massacres, suicide bombings. Blood, death, tears. Love, grudge, hatred. Hunger, poverty, cruelty. Sorrows, joys, resentments. Fights, polarizations, swearing. Feudlords, kings, sultans, dictators. Aghas, pashas, mullahs. “It’s all in this grain of dust.” He used his expressions.
HERE IS SEDAT KAYA’S ARTICLE:
The Voyager 1 probe, which NASA launched into space on September 5, 1977, sent a photo 13 years later on February 14, 1990.
It was an amazing photo.
A grain of dust was visible in the infinity of space.
This grain of dust was our world.
It was a photo of our home from 6.4 billion kilometers away.
It’s all we have.
They called it Pale Blue Dot.
Pale Blue Dot.
Astronomer Carl Sagan, one of NASA’s most important names, described this photo as follows.
“Look again at this spot. It is our home. It is us. Everyone you love and know, everyone you have heard of, living and dead, is on it. The sum of all our joys and sorrows, thousands of contradictory religions, ideologies and economic doctrines; every hunter who has lived throughout human history.” and collector, every hero and coward, every founder and destroyer of civilization, every king and farmer, every couple in love, every mother and father, every hopeful child, inventor, explorer, moral teacher, corrupt politician, every superstar, every “great leader.” , every saint and sinner on it, in that speck of dust hanging on a ray of sunlight.
The world is a very small stage in the face of the infinity of the universe.
Think of the rivers of blood shed by all those generals and emperors who, with their victory, became momentary masters of a grain of dust.
Our boasts, our self-importance, our delusion about our privileged position in the universe are all destroyed by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck of dust in the darkness of space that surrounds it. In our lostness in this vast void, there is no one who will come to help us save us from ourselves.
Earth is the only planet we know of that has life on it. There’s nowhere else we can go, at least in the near future. We can visit, but we can’t settle yet. Like it or not, Earth is our only refuge right now.”
Carl Sağan passed away 28 years ago on a December evening.
Space studies have taken their place in the golden pages of human history.
Now look at this photo again.
What are we dealing with in our world, which is not the size of a grain of dust in a huge space of 14 billion years?
Wars, massacres, suicide bombings.
Blood, death, tears.
Love, grudge, hatred.
Hunger, poverty, cruelty.
Sorrows, joys, resentments.
Fights, polarizations, swearing.
Feudlords, kings, sultans, dictators.
Aghas, pashas, mullahs.
It’s all in this grain of dust.
