>The Earth was small, light blue, and so touchingly alone, our home

>The sun truly "comes up like thunder," and it sets just as fast. Each

>The Earth reminded us of a Christmas tree ornament hanging in the
>blackness of space. As we got farther and farther away it diminished
>in size. Finally it shrank to the size of a marble, the most beautiful
>marble you can imagine. That beautiful, warm, living object looked so
>fragile, so delicate, that if you touched it with a finger it would
>crumble and fall apart. Seeing this has to change a man, has to make a
>man appreciate the creation of God and the love of God.

>Suddenly, from behind the rim of the moon, in long, slow-motion
>moments of immense majesty, there emerges a sparkling blue and white
>jewel, a light, delicate sky-blue sphere laced with slowly swirling
>veils of white, rising gradually like a small pearl in a thick sea of
>black mystery. It takes more than a moment to fully realize this is

>For the first time in my life I saw the horizon as a curved line. It

>A Chinese tale tells of some men sent to harm a young girl who, upon
