A tribute to Carl Sagan.
I'm not really sure where the idea for the balloons came from; it was part cute idea, part attempt at symbolizing what he had wanted to see more than anything: the human race move on to better and brighter things.

EDIT: Due to the level of apparent enthusiasm about this image, I've enabled it as a print, along with wallpaper versions:

This is one of the more original Sagan works i've found.

Thanks!
I figure there's no shame in putting out a little imagination as a tribute to a man with an incredibly imagination of his own.
