1.7 trillion suns
[image: Gaia spacecraft image] The most spaced out story Data from the European Space Agency’s *Gaia spacecraft inspired a cluster of papers with cosmic insights*, described this week by physics writer Emily Conover. By measuring stars’ motions and distances, Gaia gets spacey in ways the Starship Enterpris*e* never imagined. For instance, Gaia enabled scientists to estimate that the Milky Way, Earth’s galactic home, is about 1.7 trillion times the mass of the sun. The spacecraft also led to the identification of three stars speeding through the galaxy that may have gotten their zip f... mais »
Earth as a pale blue dot
from brainpickings.org by Maria Popova The “Pale Blue Dot” photograph captured by the *Voyager 1* (NASA/JPL) In describing what the *Voyager* captured in that grainy photograph of mostly empty space, Sagan limned Earth as a “pale blue dot.” That became the moniker of the photograph itself and the title of hisbestselling book published later that year, in which he wrote that “everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives” on this “mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”/.../
