whats sad is this was filmed like 40 years ago, and so little has changed in human behavior since then. He warned about global warming in one episode, and here we are still denying it exists.

"Fanatic ethnic or religious or national identifications are a little difficult to support when we see our planet as a fragile blue crescent, fading to become an inconspicuous point of light against the bastion and citadel of the stars"

This one single quote utterly dwarfs all the divinely inspired religious mumbo-jumbo in every holy book combined. Bravo, Mr. Sagan, bravo!

The ball of rock can and will survive anything we throw at it, but what good is that ball of rock without the ecosystem it underlies? We can damage ecosystems quite easily, you know.
