I appreciate this

@valeo626 agreed man its the seemingly crazy ones that move humanity forward, the ones that go against the current and challenge current knowledge. We are all born original, we do not have to die a copy.

@ShaunParish No, Rick Perry is a goober.

The thing that is amazing and it amy be not compltly proven but it so turns out that that Venus is just within the habitable zone of the Solar System but the outer edge is maybe more than 3 AU from the Sun, Mars is only 1.5 or so, that encompasses a large fraction of the asteroid belt even a dwarf planet. A system just over 20 lightyears from here has as much as 3 habitable zone planets not including several or even a dozen in this zone that would not be detectable yet anyway.

lol and they really "chopped and screwed" stravinsky's rite of spring. makes me wonder what was left of spring after this happened?

Your answer doesn't have anything to do with what i was asking!! And I never said Carl Sagan WASN'T a brilliant man who we can learn a great deal from! Tell me, what is your definition of a goober? If carl sagan is a goober, i can identify with his gooberness. I am probably a goober, as i define the term. But please, let's not argue semantics! Like walt disney and adolf hitler, carl sagan was anti-semantic!

@valeo626 What are you talking about? Carl Sagan was a brilliant man who we can learn a great deal from. Your question doesn't have anything to do with what I said.

[valeo626]

@TairyGreen89 "many people" thought the world was flat. "many people" burned heretics at the stake for making rational inquiry. If "many people" jumped off a cliff, would you follow them?

[TairyGreen89]

@valeo626 Ok but I don't think many people would say Carl Sagan was a goober.

[valeo626]

@TairyGreen89 It's hard to precisely define a goober; you know one when you see one.

@JohnF30Music

A lot of the music appearing in Cosmos is comprised of previously existing pieces having nothing to do with Vangelis. Much of the music of this segment is Stravinsky's Rite of Spring (incoherently edited if you know the piece well). A fitting choice, both for its savagery and for its depiction of Russian folklore. It was written within five years of the comet strike.
