Wow. I'd like to have a large hi-rez version of that for my desktop. Think I'll go to the cassini site and see if they have it up.

Thanks for tracking down that link. It looks great at high resolution. Note also that in the Pinker article at Edge, you can see Earth in the upper left corner as the proverbial Pale Blue Dot (at least at higher resolutions).
