NOTE: I used a lot of different material to make this video, but the cornerstone is the original "Earth - The Pale Blue Dot" time lapse film by Michael Marantz:

7427185.mov - (I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to locate where I got this source video after extensive searching. Somewhere on YouTube, that much I know. 7427185.mov is the only file name in my project file. This file is the NYC Time Square rooftop/window time lapse. If this is your material, please let me know and I will link and credit you!)

NOTE: If you are the original camera man or shooter who got any of this footage in Egypt or Tunisia and you would like your name attached to it, please just get in touch with me and I will add your name above your video! The original shooters of the raw YouTube videos are extremely hard to track down, as they have been uploaded, mirrored, and copied by so many different people. Thank you to everyone whose footage I used in the making of this video. It wouldn't be possible without you.
