"Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people."
- Carl Sagan

Carl Sagan recorded a message to the future Martians from near his home in Ithaca, New York, with a water fall cascading in the background.  The recording can be found here www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi3-0s…

The purpose of my artwork is to inspire people about science and astronomy, and to incite people to learn about our universe and its grand beauty.  I have prints available if you would like to include this piece in your home to amaze your guests with the wonders of the cosmos.
