Following on from Kort's thread - Does anyone else have any life changing/world changing images/events special in their life. For me: men in space, especially the moon missions. I think they changed the way people think, they were so momentous for everyone who saw them at the time.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Well, for me there is the end of the cold war, and of course, what you see below. http://home.comcast.net/~jeffrey.king2/wsb/html/view.cgi-photo.html--SiteID-268208.html

The below link was probably my second choice Kort - sat all day just watching TV in disbelief. But so many events and images it is genuinely hard to pick.

Because on my fascination with space, the Moon landings would be first. I was very young when the first landing took place. Closely followed by the first Mars landings and Voyager I and II images of Saturn and Jupiter ....etc Tried to find some Voyager links but got fed up searching through the Star Trek stuff lol Although I am quite partial to a bit of Star Trek, not what I would call life changing imagery!

For me it is in 1971 when we took a day off high school to protest the Amchitka nuclear bomb test. Now years later I have this premonition that it changed our weather pattern. Some far out thought that a bomb devastation that size could knock the earth off it's axis just enough to have it spin around the sun a different way to result in that change. Yeah maybe far off thoughts...but ?
