Beautifully said. The "Pale Blue Dot" remains one of the most profound images in human history—a humbling reminder of our place in the cosmos.Captured on February 14, 1990, by NASA's Voyager 1 from about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) away, Earth appears as a minuscule speck—less than a single pixel—suspended in a ray of scattered sunlight.This was part of Voyager's "Family Portrait" series, the last images taken before its cameras were powered down to conserve energy for the long journey into interstellar space. The idea came largely from Carl Sagan, who later reflected in his book Pale Blue Dot:"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives... Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light."
In 2020, NASA released a remastered version using modern processing techniques, making our fragile world stand out even more https://t.co/GLnvaqR77R're spot on: it's not just a photo; it's a call to perspective, unity, and stewardship. In an era of division, this view from the edge of our solar system underscores that we all share this one irreplaceable home. Voyager 1, now over 25 billion kilometers away and still sending data, continues to embody that spirit of curiosity and exploration.Thank you for sharing this timeless reflection.

Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: https://t.co/pfqcWRRWyc via @38degrees

@JeremyVineOn5 The Prime Minister is cutting the aid budget to increase military spending. The impact on people facing poverty, conflict and disaster will be devastating. Demand Keir Starmer reverses aid cuts: write to your MP now. https://t.co/66qrQNBXFL

@elonmusk Perhaps if you could think a bit more philanthropically? We should be trying to embrace the world as a whole and start giving a sh*t about others less well off than ourselves. That’s a true gift.

@JeremyVineOn5 I think they should. I get the government is trying to claw back money but I don’t think it should be taken from Pensioners who no longer have the opportunity to work to cover their costs.

@biztradegovuk Post Office Scandal Full Compensation and accountability https://t.co/2irXWDcPeC via @UKChange

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

In 1901, Dr. Allan Warner of the Isolation Hospital at Leicester, England, took a series of photographs of patients with smallpox.

This one is possibly the most famous.

The two boys are said to be 13 year-olds and infected with smallpox simultaneously during an epidemic of the disease in the United Kingdom, one of the last big ones there.

The boy on the left shows a full-blown presentation of smallpox, with the pus-filled pustules all over his body, concentrated on his face and arms. The boy on the right is at the hospital in the same isolation unit, because he is also showing some pustules (and perhaps a slight fever or malaise), though certainly not as many.

The difference is in the fact the boy on the right was vaccinated and didn't develop serious symptoms.

The earliest written description of a disease like smallpox appeared in China in the 4th century CE (Common Era). Early written descriptions also appeared in India in the 7th century and in Asia Minor in the 10th century.

Ali Maow Maalin was the last person to have naturally acquired smallpox caused by variola minor in October 1977.

Almost two centuries after Edward Jenner hoped that vaccination could annihilate smallpox, the 33rd World Health Assembly declared the world free of this disease on May 8, 1980.

This Post office scandal gets worse.

Sally rang into the show @lbc to tell me of her nightmare over many years.

Horizon update. "Discrepancies". Having to pay back the Post Office money she didn't owe. Divorce. Illness. Armed robbery. More accusations. No assistance in any way.

Sally was in tears on air. It's heartbreaking 💔

Sally hasn't contacted anyone. I hope she does.
So many of those who just paid the money and left aren't even being contacted by the Post Office 😡😡

Could former Post Office boss Paula Vennells simply hand back her CBE?

[Keith Burge @carryonkeith]

The 2p cut in National Insurance will cost the Government £9.4 billion next year. Alternatively, it could have used the money to pay junior doctors what they deserve and end the strikes instead. And invest an extra £140 million a week in the NHS with what was left over.

[ITV News @itvnews]

A petition calling for former Post Office boss Paula Vennells to have her CBE taken away over the Horizon scandal has surpassed its original target of 800,000 signatures

*THREAD*

The Post office was ordered to pay nearly £60 million in compensation to 555 victims

But astronomical legal costs meant that hundreds of sub-postmasters still remain out of pocket and a lot have died before receiving justice.

@nsandihelp I’ve added a new account but it wouldn’t let me type my full name into the account name box, will it still be authenticated?
