| Summary: | The starting point of the analysis is a Pale Blue Dot photograph taken by the Voyager 1 probe. The author discusses the narrative associated with this image, which is often invoked in space documentaries. The article offers a reflection on the stories of space exploration, which are essentially narratives about the Earth, its problems and transformations, including the transformations of nature. The interpretive context in which the analysis is set is the dominant trends of today’s astroculture. The author traces the development and relationship of the pale blue dot narrative to the characteristic motifs of contemporary films and series about space exploration, and notes its complementarity in relation to other planetary narratives that are particularly often exploited in space documentaries. |
