Our little Spaceship Earth is only eight thousand miles in diameter, which is almost a negligible dimension in the great vastness of space…. Spaceship Earth was so extraordinarily well invented and designed that to our knowledge humans have been on board it for two million years not even knowing that they were on board a ship.
R. Buckminster Fuller
When I went to
When I went to the moon I was a pragmatic test pilot. But when I saw the planet Earth floating in the vastness of space the presence of divinity became almost palpable and I knew that life in the universe was not just an accident. Edgar Mitchell
