The audio is accompanied by a visual journey from Earth's orbit to the edge of the solar system, where, in 1990,
the Voyager 1 space probe captured the famous image of Earth that Sagan dubbed "Pale Blue Dot."
Note: The camera is panning out at a velocity much greater than the speed of light.
In the video it took 3 minutes to get to Neptune.
