Excerpts were taken from Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space. More specifically, from the chapter titled Wanderers. I edited together the audio from the audio-book, and added the video from:
- Carl Sagan's Cosmos
- BBC's Wonders of the Solar System with Brian Cox
- BBC's Walking with Cavemen
- Discovery's Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking
- Discovery's Super Structures
- History's Failure is not an Option
- Schindler's List (film)
- Select pictures from Boston.com's The Big Picture
The music is derived from three songs on the Lost soundtrack: Hollywood and Vines, Locke'd Out Again, and Oceanic 815.
