This breathtaking 4-minute video was created by Swedish animator and digital artist Erik Wernquist.
In it, Wernquist displays a future in which humans journey to the planets, moons, and asteroids within our own solar system. This is our real sci-fi future, if we are willing to invest in it.
The images are accompanied by Carl Sagan's narration about the insatiable curiosity that drives humankind to explore other worlds, from his book "Pale Blue Dot."
