Engineering and science are not the same thing. The astronaut's footprint, earthrise, and atomic bomb are all examples of feats of engineering, not science.

In images like the pale blue dot image, how does one go about taking a photograph of the earth itself and the area it's in? Is it just an artist's representation? It could be a satellite image but it seems to far in this case (I don't think we've ever had a craft leave the solar system). There are also images of the milky way, which we're inside of, and that doesn't quite make sense to me either.
