liminal6823 - Professor Sagan changed my life, too. It began with a normal Friday night trip to the movies for a group of 15 year olds in 1997, when we chose to see "Contact". That movie set off a quest for knowledge that has never diminished to this day. I'm 41 now, and still fascinated by the subjects Sagan talked about. The cosmos, physics, evolution, religion, philosophy, chemistry, SETI's mission (although I doubt we'll ever find anything proving intelligent life exists out there, I appreciate the reasons for looking and absolutely love the thoughts that come when I let my imagination follow the possibilities if we DID discover other intelligent life.) Sadly, by the time I figured out the movie "Contact" was based on the book "Contact", and the name of the author was Carl Sagan, and I went looking for info on him... he had been gone for almost a year. Since 1997, I've read every book he wrote, as well as a large number of his academic papers. I've watched the original "Cosmos" series at least 15-20× and have watched most of his lectures, thanks very much to KZread! (Pre KZread, even with the internet, finding these lectures was not easy.) Just wanted to say hi 👋 to a fellow admirer of Carl Sagan's eloquent brilliance and his efforts to educate the masses. As I mentioned, his words changed my life. He directly influenced a 180⁰ turn in my academic trajectory. I only wish I'd known of him sooner.

Carls Sagan’s words should be read out and considered by delegates before every gathering of world leaders. Now more than at any time previously his words resonate and are profoundly relevant. Considering he compiled The Pale Blue Dot in the 70’s, his concerns for the future of the planet were real then and have become ever more prophetic as the decades role on.

No one since Sagan has communicated the universe in such a poetic way.

My favorite cross Sagan book was Contact. Yes it comes under the category of fiction and of course using many of his theories in the writing of said book but it was just wonderful nonetheless. As far as his series cosmos, It was the 1st truly expansive piece of work that catered to the intellect of the average American. He simply put things in terms that were Suddenly Understandable to those other than specialists in their field of astronomy including astrophysics. And on a lighter side, Carl Sagan was one of the best of Johnny Carson's regular guests.
