It’s the name of the photo taken of earth by Voyager 1 (February 14, 1990)
If you’ve never seen it, you should do that immediately.
There’s also a quote by Carl Sagan that goes along with it. In the photo Earth is just a tiny blue dot suspended in a sunbeam. It really gives some perspective, that we’re almost non existent compared to the enormity of the void of space. And how precious our little mote of dust really is.
