  • Callum, you've outdone yourself this time. Great work.

  • @nirvgorilla I'm sorry you feel that way. This project is an attempt to bring Cosmos to a wider audience. As well as the show has held up and the brilliance of Carl Sagan aside, your average person isn't going to watch a science documentary from 1980. In updating the CGI, and making the video a more engaging experience that encourages user interaction, you can effectively reach audiences that would otherwise be out of your range of influence. Thanks, in any case, for the feedback.

  • @Elc22 True, which makes him very important. He was the best science popularizer. Check out my contribution to advocating science: /watch?v=D3F0jid85dI

  • @Motmaelendur he may not have been as influential to science compared to Newton or Einstein, but he is probably the best advocate for science

  • @oopopp He is really great, but he is not comparable to Newton on Einstein. He is vary famous though. 500 million people have seen Cosmos!

  • How come Sagan is not more famous? He should be as well known as Newton, and Einstein.

  • @nirvgorilla i actually find these videos quite amazing, carl sagan would greatly approve, not get all buttsore about it like you are. i can only assume the ONE dislike is from you? lol

  • Thanks for posting. 

  • Brilliant. 5:24 Wow, the scale is mind blowing....galaxies as plentiful as motes of dust in a sunbeam.

  • @nirvgorilla Oh come on, man. You must surely recognize that Carl Sagan himself would deeply approve of these videos.

  • @nirvgorilla

    Why are you so angry? The message of Carl Sagan's Cosmos hasn't been changed.

  • Wonderful job, good sir! The music at the beginning always stirs me up.
