This song changed the trajectory of my life: after being disillusioned with musical theatre and losing a bit of myself, I saw this over 10 years ago. I read everything I could from Sagan, and others, and decided that I wanted to study astrophysics. I’ve earned my PhD now, have been published in scientific journals, and work to bring the inspiration that this brought me to others. I thank you, profoundly.

Really wishing you the absolute best in your journey ahead, let's keep pushing science forward.

I’d like to think of it as a possible future for humanity. A human presence that spans most of the 400 billion-or-so stars.

I mean, his work on creating aminos from only brown goop and light was pretty amazing stuff, but it's not like his scientific career output is anywhere near many other scientists from just the second half of the twentieth century. What made Carl so special was his forty year long effort trying (and usually succeeding) to bring hard science to popular culture, through books, television, symposiums, and myriad interviews. Unparalleled in scientific communication.

Same! So nostalgic and inspiring :)

I just heard Neil say on the show "A still more glorious dawn awaits......." To me, this is an amazing tribute to Carl, to an amazing show, Neil was definitely a good choice to pass the torch. I just wonder how many quotes from the first COSMOS I've missed Neil say.

Brian Cox also quoted Sagan in his Universe and Solar System series. Sagan was, and still is an inspiration to so many people. He achieved so much and he was a true champion of the world.

"Space is filled with a network of wormholes, you might emergence somewehere else in space, somewhen else in time" Broke me into tears.

Watching Carl's shows... he was smart enough/educated enough to reason about the universe, humble enough to recognize he didn't have all the answers, and it doing so, realized the best outcome was to inspire another generation of thinkers. We stand on the shoulders of giants.

Missing Carl Sagan. Missing his ability to make science and the Cosmos so approachable. Thank you MS... You are awesome at keeping his ideas relavant and accessible.

This song has unlocked many doors for me. Without it, I would not be on the path im on today.

This autotune is made of star stuff.

This video was uploaded 11 years ago and for me this is the best music video or whatever we call this.

I had this video open just to listen in general and was about to hit play, RIGHT before I saw the news... He's seen his glorious dawn... RIP, Professor Stephen Hawking...

Even after 5 years I still can't get enough of this awesome video. Thanks MelodySheep, your skill, talent is addicting!

"The sky calls to us If we do not destroy ourselves We will one day venture to the stars A still more glorious dawn awaits Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise A morning filled with 400 billion suns The rising of the milky way."-Dr. Carl Sagan The late, great Dr. Carl Sagan had the mind of a scientist, and the heart of a poet. ❤

Yes this was one of the originals. I still come here.

After hearing about the movie about Stephen Hawking, wouldn't it be great to see one about Carl ?

I remember finding this when I couldn’t sleep and was a little depressed as I had just started High School and started experiencing several chronic illnesses that I still struggle with today. This helped change my perspective.

"The sky calls to us. If we do not destroy ourselves, we will one day venture to the stars" Wow...

To the OP: I have been listening to this song for a few years. I know it word for word. I click "repeat" at least three times in a row each time comes up on my playlist. Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo creative!!!!!!! RIP Carl, still miss you buddy. The world has become so "noisy", would be nice to have your voice of reason still around.

"Except for hydrogen and helium, every atom in the Sun and the Earth was synthesized in other stars. The silicon in the rocks, the oxygen in the air, the carbon in our DNA, the gold in our banks, the uranium in our arsenals were all made thousands of light-years away and billions of years ago. Our planet, our society and we ourselves are built of star stuff." - Carl Sagan We are the way for the universe to know itself.

+LucisFerre1 think about it like this though. all that matter came from somewhere. a grand element. condensed with all the particles in a potential substance capable of creating a universe. w/e that element was, was given the nuclear theory. probably how we discovered nuclear theory for the atom bomb. as our elements combine and turn, will eventually condense and burn as the stars are doing, creating the densest matter in the universe. soon. their gravitational force will pull themselves back together. condensing. cycling. inevitably starting this whole existence over again. i believe i figured out the universe. but i have no proof of course, only logic.

"Our future depends powerfully on how well we understand this cosmos." -Carl Sagan How profound

Ah when I hear the first two notes of that opening minor 3rd it never ceases to amaze me that I've been coming back to this song for nigh on 10 years now...

This video in particular was to me my initial step/spark of interest into pursuing my education in science back in 2012-2013. My late teens and early twenties, back when I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life and no real career aspirations. Since then, I've returned back to academia and obtained my undergraduate in engineering. Worked for a few places, met some great people. Now on my way to becoming an engineer. It's been fulfilling but it was definitely a turbulent process at times. Wish all you guys the best of luck out there wishing to pursue a career related to science.

Just like many others, I have once again revisited this video following the passing of one of the most influential men in our age of science, Stephen Hawking. My dad showed me this video when I was much younger, and it opened my mind to new ways of thinking that I don’t think I would have pursued if it weren’t for this video. I know it seems like a stretch, but I was an impressionable child and this song made a huge impact on me. Thanks again for the video Melodysheep. If you read this comment I just want to let you know that I am pursuing music as well, and I’m so excited to go to college to learn how to teach others in a way that Carl Sagan, Neil Tyson, Stephen Hawking, and you have taught me. Sorry for being sentimental, and thanks for the time you took to read this. I thought you would want to know you helped change someone’s life for the better.

This is still one of my absolutely favorite things on KZread, ten years after I discovered it. We need stuff like this right now. We need people like Sagan and hope for the future.

This is easily one of the most beautiful songs/sentiments I have ever experienced and I find myself coming back to it time after time in order to reset my perspective. Thank you for making this. It is very much appreciated.

Im not very good at singing songs but here is a try UUUOOOPP OOHH UUOOOPP OHHH OHHH UUOPPP OOHH If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch you must first invent the universe. Space is filled with a network of wormholes You might emerge somewhere else in space Some wheb-else in time The sky calls to us If we do not destroy ourselves We will one day venture to the stars A still more glorious dawn awaits Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise A morning filled with 400 billions suns The rising of the milky way So epic

This video introduced me to Carl Sagan and his work, and I am so grateful for that. Awesome song. Awesome person.

I haven't heard this for 14 years since it came out. And I still remembered it.

"A still more glorious dawn awaits; not a sunrise, but a galaxy-rise. A morning filled with 400 billion suns - the rising of the Milky Way!" LOVE.
