“I don’t know where I am. I just know I’m running. Sometimes it’s like I’ve lived a thousand lives in a thousand places. I’m born. I live. I die. And always, there’s The Doctor. Always, I’m running to save The Doctor again, and again, and again. And he hardly ever hears me, but I’ve always been there. Right from the very beginning. Right from the day he started running.”

In my opinion, one of the best things humanity has captured on video. Done in 1979 by Voyager 1 as it approached Jupiter.This footage is hypnotizing. It will never fail to blow my mind that the rest of the universe exists and is real and out there waiting to be discovered.

The Rangers win a Game 7 on the road, for the first time in their 80+ year history, and come back from an 0-2 deficit for just the second time in team history. Lundqvist becomes the first goaltender in over a decade, to post shutouts in Games 6 and 7 of a series.
Now the Rangers head to Boston, for the first post-season matchup between the teams since 1973.
