  • Carl Sagan stated that he's not very good at singing songs.

    However, this is one of the best musical works since the beginning of time, and Sagan's the one singing most of it.

    Ergo, there are two possibilities:

    1. Carl Sagan is a liar (unlikely), or

    2. This is not a song.

  • "A morning filled with 400 billion suns" Best. Line. Ever.

  • Like!!!

  • 780 people destroyed themselves.

  • wow that was really good ^^

  • Why in the world would anyone dislike this? Silly peoples.

  • goosebumps

  • One of the greatest men of the 20th century ... Thoroughly missed

  • It's the forth time this week I'm watching it!

  • this video exposed me to Carl Sagan in 2009. Thank you melodysheep.

  • RIP Carl Sagan

  • these are lyrics that you can not argue with.

  • seriously why can't their be a god that created everything and then let it evolve? Maybe he was bored and needed entertainment... I mean really why does it have to be science versus god? why can't it be science AND god?

  • @mcdrunkin If by "God", you mean the laws of nature that govern the universe, then yes, it IS science and God.

    But if you mean some old bearded man in the sky, then extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Give me some extraordinary evidence for the extraordinary claim that "God exists".

  • @mcdrunkin interesting theory

  • @mcdrunkin because Christianity is a stone age belief that was used in order to keep a rising Empire intact.

  • @crow33215 funny I don't remember saying anything about Christ... I said god. Religion is an evil evil thing when misused (I.E. all of history lol) but that does not mean that a creator did or does not have a hand in our universe does it? My biggest issue with this debate is the "science" crowd are often as closed minded and unaccepting of anything that doesn't match their beliefs as the "religious" they speak out against. We should be uniting not dividing.

  • @mcdrunkin Hey now, if god exists, I'm certain he's more powerful than all of us combined. What use is there in uniting? Seems like so much more politics.

  • @mcdrunkin sure the spaghetti monster created all this universe :3

  • @thidritoboladao see rehashing someone else's old material and passing it off as your own in an effort to make yourself appear superior only weakens your argument. If you wish to believe in nothing knock yourself out, all I'm doing is being open to the possibility of a creator, and asking why people feel the gleeful urge to destroy other's instead of uplifting them. It's senseless to me. I am guilty of it myself on occasion and even then it's nonsense.

  • @ultimatecomic69

    Haeckel

    Follow that rabbit down its hole. Deception is rampant, the only good thing about it is that it has formed a pattern. It has become evidence for something larger.

  • @Uenbg

    Ah, that straw man again -.- You do know that it's evolutionary biology that uncovered that mistake, don't you?

  • When Carl starts beatboxing -- Shit just got real

  • 2:19 - That's fucked up.

  • @BlackOasis21 Hey now, that's how he always looks.

  • Srsly stop feeding the troll aDamnLoveTheLords. He is not worth our time :)

  • Very beautiful. Made me cry.

  • Is that Carl Sagan or Kermit the Frog?

  • GOD IS THE REAL CREATOR! NONE OF THIS EVOLUTION BIG EXPLOSION THEORIES ARE THE TRUTH. YOU ALL MUST DISLIKE THIS VIDEO AND TAKE IT DOWN. THEN FOLLOW CHRISTIAN MORALS. WHEN YOU DIE AND GOD KNOW YOU WERE WATCHING A VIDEO OF THE DEMON-POSSESSED CARL SAGAN, HE WILL GIVE NO MERCY AND CAST YOU TO HELL WITH SATAN. REPENT. GO TO CHRISTIAN VIDEOS INSTEAD. GOSPEL MUSIC IS A LOT MORE TOUCHING AND HAS MORE MEANING. THIS IS WORTHLESS.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 Hey. Hey Hey. Fuck you.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 Cool story bro.

  • @BlackOasis21 YES, IT'S CALLED THE BIBLE. READ IT SOME TIME.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 I did, and that's why I became an atheist.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 Shut the fuck up, bitch. Burn your sheet of line paper which you call the bible. The REAL bible is safe from your gay hands.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 evidence for your claim?

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 I'm sorry, but that's not evidence. There are plenty of other explanations that actually have evidence to support the claim. All you have is a 2000 year old book.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 Instead of yelling at us about your religion, trying to tell us why we should believe, can't you just take comfort in knowing that if we're wrong, we'll burn for eternity? Please. Go converse with your fellow believers instead of trying to convert people who you cannot convert.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 No benevolent, all powerful, and most merciful deity would invent the Caps Lock button, and then allow you access to it.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1

    "GOD IS THE REAL CREATOR!"

    - No, The FSM is. Also, shouting doesn't make it true.

    "NONE OF THIS EVOLUTION BIG EXPLOSION THEORIES ARE THE TRUTH."

    - First: big explosion (Big Bang, one presumes) and evolution theories are two separate, unrelated theories. Second, there's this pesky stuff called evidence?

    "YOU ALL MUST DISLIKE THIS VIDEO AND TAKE IT DOWN."

    - Ah, let's all jump to our feet and do your bidding. Only: no.

    cont.

  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 "... HE WILL GIVE NO MERCY AND CAST YOU TO HELL WITH SATAN." - Ah, so you know what God will do? Pretentious, much? "REPENT." - No. "GO TO CHRISTIAN VIDEOS INSTEAD." - I should. I could use a good laugh. "GOSPEL MUSIC IS A LOT MORE TOUCHING AND HAS MORE MEANING." - ... propaganda.* "THIS IS WORTHLESS." - A testament to the size of your brain.
  • @AdamLovesTheLORD1 Any heaven that refuses Carl Sagan entry strikes me as more like hell than anything else.

  • Carl Sagan liked turtlenecks...

  • To view the entire milky way at dawn, you are likely looking at a rogue planet on a very long orbit around the galactic core, dominantly in empty space. No sun helps things but a lack of atmosphere is also ideal, for reduced atmospheric refraction. Not a very hospitable place, but holy science what a great view.

  • this is freakin good

  • This is just awesome.

  • "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch"

    *Me preparing stuff

    "You must first invent the universe"

    Me:FUCK

  • @MCVXtreme this needs it's very own Rage Comic.

  • ;D Heh, these make me so sad, but I love em

  • The brain does much more than just recolects, it intercompares and synthesizes, analyzes. It generates abstractions!

  • youre so awesome

  • The universe is the result of a vastly enormous being that one day decided it wanted to make an apple pie from Saganian Scratch. One day...the universe will turn into a giant apple pie. I eagerly await this delicious future.

  • Oh yeah, and 776 people left the universe out of their apple pie recipes...

  • If this video is any indication, then Sagan was about as bad a singer as Einstein was a retard :p

  • Comment removed

  • "The sky calls to us" - spine chilling every time...

  • Stephen Hawking - autotuning before it was popular.

  • @thedarkone123123 we're all going to hell for laughing at this

  • @erionmema1 Fortunately Hell seems to be the residence or destination of all the even remotely interesting people who have ever lived.

  • Carl Sagan totally inspired the 'Tim and Eric: Awesome Show' episode 'Universe' with a smidge of Michio Kaku's strange analogies. I totally lost it at every clip of him looking upward and smiling... He's just so into it... kinda weird. "I'm shining a flashlight on your son's bedroom wall every night to teach him about the universe." LOL.

  • why do we have to invent the universe just to make an apple pie??

  • @RQBtv have you ever tired to create an apple pie without the universe?

  • @joshbfat I tried making an apple pie without the universe. Needles to say Sagan owned me because my pie tasted awful. But then I added the universe into the mix. It tasted heavenly

  • @RQBtv because if the universe didn't exist in the first place, how would you make the pie?

  • @RQBtv

    It's all about atoms :)

  • @RQBtv

    Well, now we don't. But to do it FROM SCRATCH, well... You see, everything you use to make an apple pie is in fact recycled ;)

  • Thumbs up if pr2hub brought you here.

  • Who ever made this is such a genius, was this originaly a song??

  • @xXTonyToxiSaurXx no, its a remix of different quotes from Cosmos series.

  • @LordSesshaku Ahh okay, but actualy what i was really looking to know is the beggining with Carl Sagen

  • @xXTonyToxiSaurXx

    He is the main narrator of the Cosmos series. Cosmos with Carl Sagan. Google dude.

  • If we went back in time and showed Sagan this video, how do you think he would react?

  • @flobadob222 He would probably be curious about the science you used to go back in time.

  • If only more people were like Carl...

  • I have a tendency to cry when I listen to this song. Specifically every time I hear "A still more glorious dawn awaits..."

    So much awesome in that one line, it overwhelms my body and leaks out of my tear ducts.

  • Simply amazing. Mr. Sagan single handedly opened my eyes to the wonder that is the Cosmos... this only perpetuates that feeling.

    Goose bumps falls short of what I'm feeling.

    Thank you Carl and thank you 'Symphony of Science'.

  • RIP Mr. Sagan....:( I was born 1993 but I find his motives simply amazing! :D

  • sniff

  • Every morning when i wake up, i listen to this song :)

  • @CenaxKikia...that is too fucking awesome that this aired on Adult swim...

  • @enyskept That's actually how I found out about it

  • I remember the first time I watched this and the tears that streamed down my face. :) I keep coming back.

  • 772 people want to destroy themselves.

  • CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

    

  • Is this song going away when sopa/pipa goes into effect?

  • @DemonicSymphonic >thinking sopa/pipa will actually go into effect

    >2012

  • autotune done right

  • You really know shits goin down when you see carl doin the pensive slow-mo walk at 2:09

  • incredible. i think i can honestly say with %100 certainty that this is my favorite video on the internet, period. this brings tears to my eyes it is so beautiful! thank you melodysheep for creating the symphony of science series and of course, thank you Carl for being so awesome. we miss you!

  • this is amazing

  • OMG so last night i invented the universe!!!!!

  • instant classic!

  • im not very good at singing songs...so let me drop this beat and blow your mind.

  • my brain is full of billions and billions of fuck.

  • Yes

  • We all know why we watched this video .. but were we lied to? ¬¬ Tricked into watching

  • Carl Sagan is a visionary. A man so incredibly way ahead of his time.

  • Too bad you can only "thumbs up" once...

  • @Meydra Don't let that stop you from trying though!

  • This is still by far my favorite symphony of science video

  • Every time I watch Cosmos disappointed when Carl suddenly doesn't sing his words :<

  • It makes me sad of how I didn't born before Carl Sagan passed away.

  • WHY CAN'T YOU BE ALIVE SAGAN? I'd have loved to have met you....fuck I need to go to bed, I'm tearing up.

  • ". . I recall the final chapter title from one of Carl Sagan's earlier works, Cosmos, 'Who Speaks for Earth?' is a rhetorical question, but I presume to answer it. My candidate for planetary ambassador can be none other than Carl Sagan himself." -- Richard Dawkins (Also Humanity)

  • its funny because i believing god and the big bang :L

  • @DiggyDoggyDog Well the "Great Architect of the Universe"-believe is indeed compatible with modern day science.

  • My greatest regret is that I was born after Cosmos went off the air.

  • There is a speck of red dust on my screen next to the like bar for some reason.

  • I was born in feb 1996.

    I feel so lucky to have existed on earth at the same time as carl sagan :)

  • Damn, every time i watch this video i get this feeling of warmth and hope for the human race. Despite all the shit is going on around the planet.

  • this is why you should not smoke weed, you might become the world's smartest scientest

  • 772 people were never taught science in school

  • You will live forever in our hearts, Carl. Thank you for everything that you have taught me.

  • So... someone needs to make a dubstep remix lol

  • 772 people need to be killed...really.

  • this is the best one of all other vids

  • Get ready guys, new SOS out tuesday!

  • Carl don't be so modest you are good

  • Spore space stage FTW

  • Lol did someone actually quote the plagiarist fraud and head trauma damaged woman who had "visions" E.G. White? I understand years and years ago not knowing some of this stuff, but there's no excuse to go on believing SDA crap with the power of Google at your fingertips. Absolutely no excuse for the ongoing stupidity. Shame on those with brains and voluntarily stunt their own intelligence.

  • Rip carl sagan you were a truly a great person, if you were still around today we would of probably "ventured to the stars". Its astounding beyond belief that justin beiber has more views in his videos compared to yours.

  • "If we do not destroy ourselves, We will one day venture to the stars"

    i sure hope so carl, i sure hope so.

  • @Trisscarro You're a faggot.

  • @Vivaswaq Grow up. Your mum's a faggot for bringing a retard like you into the world. Stop being a child and post a comment worth reading. What he said is right, and narrow minded brats like you don't deserve to comment.

  • This song gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

  • the butler's like " I can't look at him, I'm not worthy to look at his genius"

  • Reach for something greater.

  • I think even aliens would love Carl Sagan....so, who the hell are the 772 people who dislike this video??!

  • @MysticalVentus They don't understand how a computer interface works. That's the only explanation I can think of.

  • Thumbs up For INT N SCIENCE!

  • Just search here on youtube "off the air - space". And you will see the adults swim program (which i love by the way)

  • RIP, Kermit

  • Carl Sagan kinda sounds like Kermit.

  • I don't care how cheesy this is... It had got to be the most awesome thing I have ever seen ever.

  • More beautiful then any religion...

  • That stephen hawking has such a way with words and a great singing voice too!

  • These videos move me to tears, they're so beautiful. Awesome beautiful.

  • @anythingnew I was reading and i was like:

    OMFG U RETARDED?

    But thanks to the nature, you were kidding.

  • @MozBeettho I took the bait too @anythingnew

  • @anythingnew While I'm not a big fan of a guy that made out like there was no way any sort of a God existed, he isn't in any hell.He,like so many others,saw through this blatant lie.Think,what sense does it make make that a Omnipotent Loving God created billions of sensitive sentient  being that feel pain,just on this1 planet in such a gigantic universe,only to have the vast majority end up in a eternal torment !? It's hateful folks like you that turn so many away from religion.

  • @anythingnew

    "Carl Sagan is a great man but he is burning in hell today."

    - Prove Hell.

    "I feel sorry for him."

    - Excuse my French, but the fuck you do. If you start your comment with such a strong statement you feel strongly about it. Don't dilute your own feelings.

    "God created the universe for us."

    - Prove God.

    "Evolution is real because God intended it to happen."

    - Evolution proves no god had a hand in it.

    cont.

  • @keesengels

    "God doesn't want you to go to hell and burn forever he loves you to se--I'm just kidding. lol"

    - Yeah he loves us. Read pass- I knew ;)

    Okay, I had to do that :P Sorry 0:-D

  • @anythingnew "You must accept Jesus if you want to go to heaven." - Prove Jesus. Also: prove Heaven. "Our morality stems from the Bible, you all should read it sometime." True: * 1 Timothy 2:12 * 1 Samuel 15:3 * Exodus 22:18 * Psalm 137, line about the infants and the rocks * Romans 1:27 * 1 Peter 2:18 * Judges 19:25-28 ... and so on. Yeah, I see your point. "It is a really powerful book and will change your life." - It did. I became an atheist.
  • @keesengels lol

  • its such a shame that i am only now grasping the shear epic/awsomeness that was carl sagen im trying to find as much of his work as i can and watch it. hes a B0SS

  • If you wish to make an apple pie, you must invent the universe.

  • Only a Boss could say that the Sky Calls To Us!

  • There 771 people that should not be allowed near a computer!

  • I just saw this on [adult swim]!

  • Damn...I swear I've never heard anything like this before.

  • @CenaxKikia I had fallen asleep with Adult Swim on, and was woken up by the first sentence. Instant subconscious recognition. Glorious awakening.

  • @CenaxKikia What when?

  • @CenaxKikia This was aired on adult swim??

  • @CenaxKikia Oh????????
