PICTURE OF EARTH TAKEN ON THIS DAY IN 1990

6/21/17 The pale blue dot. | Pale blue dot, Blue dot, Dots wallpaper
The picture, known as Pale Blue Dot (above) depicts our
planet as a nearly indiscernible speck roughly the size
of a pixel. 

On Valentine’s Day, 1990, 3.7 billion miles away from the sun,  
the Voyager 1 spacecraft looked back at our solar system and
snapped the first-ever pictures of the planets from its perch at
that time beyond Neptune. This is the last image Voyager 1 ever
beamed back after which the cameras were turned off to save
power and memory.

The motorcycle was a classic black-and-chrome beauty that
perfectly matched his signature style. As he rode around town
on it, heads turned and people stopped to take pictures.
