On the fourteenth of February, nineteen ninety, Voyager One turned its camera around for the last time. It was six billion kilometers from the Sun and about thirty two degrees above the plane every planet travels in. Thirty four minutes later, its cameras were switched off forever.
It is still the only time a spacecraft has looked back at the planets from above. Every other picture of our solar system you have ever seen was drawn by a person.
That is not because nobody wanted to look. It is because of a speed you have never felt, and that every rocket we have ever launched has carried with it. And as you hear this, for the first time in a generation, something is climbing back up.
