What song is this? I know it's Brian Eno but would like to know the name of the song.

An ending (ascent). It's quite hard to find took me a while.

You know, at first I thought, "all this video is showing is space travel and understanding, the Honda robot and some stuff we know about biology", which I was a little peeved about.

Then I realised what amazing, unbelievable and incredible things these are and I was just sort of blown away again.

Loved the quote from the great Carl Sagan too. For me, the most interesting and seemingly one of the most interested scientists, nay people, to have ever lived. Just a shame he died while I was young.
