Cosmos Episode 10: The Edge of Forever Part 7 of 7

Dr. Sagan leads us on some awesome trips — to a time when galaxies were beginning to form, to India to explore the infinite cycles of Hindu cosmology, and to show how humans of this century discovered the expanding universe and its origin in the big bang.

He disappears down a black hole and reappears in New Mexico to show us an array of 17 telescopes probing the farthest reaches of space.

Don't worry.. Carl understood his place in time. He knew as do we that we will go to our graves with many unanswered questions and that's O K. It's the process of understanding and the courage to question that is the inspiration. We are fortunate to live in the time of the infancy of space travel. Future generations will look back at our time with a sense wonder and awe at the courage of our explorers.

Thats not laughable, it's one of the greatest tradgedies of the human race, ever. I grieve for those indoctrinated in religion and get insuffient answers to massive questions that now do have real answers discovered by science.

among all the things i've see from his videos, i always enjoy learning new things in life, but one thing i've learned myself very many times, we don't know where we came from, we don't know if we are going some where, but what im sure is that we still treat each other like shit. Impossible seems a little odd when we are proof that something important is going on and this life we call life might be again a weird thing but it had to satart from being smart, nature underneath is very strange.

I am happy to at least of been born in humanity's space beginnings. The data recieved from Hubble and Kepler alone gives me great joy to be alive!

@tr2n09 - Great call, yo. A lot of people seem to think that the most "scientific" view is to believe that everything came together essentially by accident... that out of infinite universes, inevitably one would randomly have the conditions necessary for life. That is bollux. Doesn't it make more sense that there is something inherent in the pattern of the universe out of which life & consciousness arose? I don't know the nature of God, but scientists who claim to know are fooling themselves...

Carl seems to have some experience ;)

He makes me WANT to learn & not take a ''fuck school'' attitude

are universe is a proton inside another proton and that proton is another.. thats exacly what i belive in a nutshell =]

[Bleehdie]

@tr2n09 I think u need to watch better, they also say that there is in an universe an other universe in every electrone there is an universe so the 2 atoms that hit each other are from an other universe.

This is also the anwser to us we can't be alone.

Also if there is an God out there who did made him he also said that is this video.

There can't be an God because if God made earth he did know we did gonna eat that apple so he ruined our lives because he knew it and christians blame the devil.

Brilliant mind challenging stuff!

Remember the human race is only STARTING to discover the universe and its secrets- dogma has no place here.

We must have a total OPEN mind to anything we discover!

The bubble-blowing sounds like a bong

Sagan wasn't a pothead

he just used it to turn science into poetry
