Carl Sagan was an avid astronomy / cosmology. I also admire this. Like him, I believe in life on other worlds, other humanities. After all, for trillions and trillions of planets in our galaxy alone empty.
I love watching Carl Sagan's videos, he has such a fantastic way of communicating. But what the Fuc& is up with these God-Dam, Mother-Fuc&ing Mormon advertisments that some stupid sonofabitch has attached to these videos? If I was to meet this guy face to face, I would spit a huge sloppy, sticky, blob of buggers in his face for being such a corporate slut! Why the Fuc& can't I watch these videos without being preached to by a fuc&ing Mormon? Damnit, I really hate Mormons! WTF!
How many of you started sing the Symphony of Science when he said, "The cosmos is also within us. We're made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself."? I love We Are All Connected.
This music is all apart of another tomorrow, another kind of language.Speaking things of nature naturalness the way it should be.Speaking things of blackness about the void the endless void the bottomless pit surrounding you.Why doesn't the earth fall how come you can walk up under it it's the music.It's the music of the earth, the music of the sun and the stars the music of yourself vibrating.yes you're music too, everyone's supposed to be playing their part in this vast orchestra of the cosmos
Fuck man, i love this guy - these vids have taught me more than 11 years of school, he can explain just about anything to you by giving an example of just about, well.. anything! you'd wish if there were more people like him
If you are inspired by Carl Sagan and think he has a good way of viewing the world, you should learn some stuff about Terence Mckenna and what he thinks. These two people are some of the most down to earth people I've witnessed.
Thought: the evolutionary pathways branch out like a tree, veins and arteries and nerves branch out like a tree, genealogies branch out like a tree, trees branch out like a tree ( :P ), the Himalayas as viewed from space branch out like nerve fibers!, the internal structures of the brain look like the Himalayas complete with peaks (cortex) valleys ridges and slopes, all built from the branches of a tree.
I'm a physician, so I have learned in a limited (though still enormously vast in volume and clinical usefulness) fashion, how the mini-cosmos of the human body, as Sagan might say, functions in its perfect and imperfect states. I keep engineers and physicists alive and they do their work. I do mine and then, if you take a step back, our entire human community has already replicated the often duplicated pattern of cellular organization and branching.
We are a process, us and all living things. That which is alive at this moment are the victorious in an endless biological equation. Those triilons of life forms that cohabitually exist within us, they that are our "emotions", our inner thoughts and our conciences. They and us are the result of infinite processes. What end then is there?,...there will be no end as there was no beginning. We will evolve until our emotional being binds completely and whole. We will become the gods of legend.
May you rest in peace Carl Sagan! A brave man for challenging dogma. it is people like him and Jacob Bronowski who are inspiring the dormant curios child in me in my 40's through youtube videos long after their death. Long live science and ling live human curiousity.
Deciding to study physics was the best decision I ever made.
People like Carl Sagan clearly express the passion for science that I feel and this should be conveyed in schools. I don't feel that it is - certainly not in my high-school, it took Greene and Kaku to arouse my curiosities.
A lot of people think science is dull, they should watch Carl and if they still think its dull, I probably wouldn't get on with them!
I agree. My 8th grade science teacher showed my class Brian Greene's "The Elegant Universe." It inspired an interest in physics and science in me that I think has largely led to my desire to major in physics when I enter college next year.
@eazylee369 Mathematics and physics were my best fields back in school but i have chosen money path. At 21 years old i am i making over 60k$ a year and have my own small web development business but i am bored as shit. Bored enough that i am about to drop out everything and return school to study physics.
I hope it is also going to be the best decision i ever made !

Making us Engineers think your Scientist jobs are more fun, lol, even though Scientists and Engineers overlap doing allot of the same things, our aims differ. Engineers use science to invent and create new things. we work together. To understand and to better our condition. The freedom of information was the greatest thing to ever happen to us, enabled us to stand on the shoulders of our predecessors, able to discover and do more than we could possibly do in only one lifetime

It's sad to notice that at my school, the engineers are looked down upon by the physicists as being motivated mainly by money, while the engineers regard physics as something on the same footing as philosophy or theology. It's amazing that we don't notice the incredibly important role that we each play in each others advancement.
While that is sad and true, I hope you are not putting Philosophy on the same footing as Theology. Philosophy is sadly misunderstood, it is the father of all academia and flows through it like the blood in our veins. Science in itself was developed largely through extensive Philosophical debate about Epistemology, that is; what knowledge is and how we might go about procuring it. People underestimate its value and essential importance. It is critical thinking and formal logic.
@moyga I understand that before the Scientific Revolution, philosophy was the material that fueled scientific thought. My prejudice now lies in the supposition that most unresolved philosophical questions cannot be solved even in principle (e.g. the question of what knowledge is). Philosophy also lacks an empirical discipline. Philosophy today is what physics would be without experiment. Theology, on the other hand, is far below philosophy in my POV. Theology is a turd that refuses to flush.
Ironic how a couple of vocabulary changes will alter everyone's perceptions to each other. Physicist = Natural Philosopher (only 300 years ago). Engineer derives 100% of the tools it uses from this philosophy, and the pagan philosophy which we built our current technology on, is nothing more than (partially) a non-christian theology. I remember a math teacher scoffing at engineers as "knuckle draggers" too. I'd love to see him find a ruler that has 100% accuracy like his formulas.
I would so go with him.
