Blu Dot is here to ask questions, to dive deep into big issues and to bring clarity to complex subjects. We want to question what others take for granted, to find wonder in the miracles of the modern world and to consider how science, technology and design can create a more sustainable future. Blu Dot is more than a blog. You'll also find us in the real world, bringing attention to game-changing products, revolutionary ideas and initiatives that protect our planet. Science We'll bring you new theories and discoveries as they emerge, and we'll also look back at the evolution of ideas, and give you the backstory to today's developments. You can expect us to cover breakthroughs with a healthy scepticism and a critical eye. Technology We'll share stories about revolutionary technology, but we'll also question the value of technological advances, as well as how they impact on people and places. For us, the most exciting thing about any technology is the potential it has to improve lives and bring new opportunities to those who have few. Design Brilliant design isn't so much about making something look nice; it's about making things work more efficiently, and more effectively. How can great design support sustainable living and conscious consumption? These are some of the ideas that we'll be exploring here. Blu Dot – the origin of our name.... In 1990, the Voyager 1 spaceprobe took a picture of the Earth, from about 3.7 billion miles away. In the picture, Earth is nothing but a pale blue dot, almost invisible in the vast blackness of space. Carl Sagan, the renowned broadcaster and astronomer, spoke about the humbling effect that this image has, and how it can serve as a reminder that Earth is the only home we have – and that we must strive to take care of our blue dot.
