What never ceases to amaze and, to be honest, please me is Doctor Sagans' delight at the wonders of the universe. He knows the mechanics, but he is so brilliant at expressing his obvious joy in the beauty he sees. We are so lucky to have had a communicator like him in my lifetime!
Carl, we miss you, now more than ever. Watched Cosmos on PBS in 1980, found it awe-inspiring then, and it still is. We need more awe and wonder in our lives. If humanity can just survive itself...
Classic Cosmos. The state of things four decades ago, when Carl Sagan opened the door to the universe, and invited us all in. While I wouldn't do astronomy professionally, this has been a huge interest to me since childhood. For others of us, like NDT put it...we didn't choose the universe; the universe chose us.
I had been sent to Church day camp, and I wasn't feeling any faith. I felt lost, but my grandma, who was trying to convert me, had a tv with no cable, so I watched PBS and saw The Cosmos. I was weeping at the beauty of the universe. Nothing had made more sense to me. It's funny how my grandma's attempt at pushing faith on me backfired into cementing my entirely non-faith based view of the world.
He does so well to put into words how small and insignificant we are to the universe. We're just a thing that's happened on earth soon to be extinguished as per usual. Just another tick in the scale of all things. Whatever that means. I still can't fathom anything existing at all in the first place, it makes perfect sense and no sense at the same time
I always wonder about the use of the term 'insignificant' in this context. What would make anything 'significant' in the universe? Size? Location? It's as if the concept of significance has no significance. Personally, I find Earth very significant. I depend on it for my life, the lives of everyone I know and the whole history of our species. It is also currently the only place known to host life. I don't know about the perspective of some meta-being overseeing the whole universe - but who cares? Perhaps significance is in the eye of the beholder...
@@andrewhillis9544 I'm sure he would be in awe, but what he would say would be more poetic than anything you or I could come up with, that is for certain.
We Were SO Lucky To Have Carl Sagan As Our Teacher!!! Patrick Moore Was Good And Neil De Grasse Tyson And Professor Brian Cox Are Good But Carl Sagan Was The Best And He Made It Easy For Anyone Regardless Of Their Education Level To Understand The Universe!!!👍

I saw this episode today, those simulations are pretty good, one of the few like that I've seen, think how trippy it must've been then, Cosmos was amazingly well made!
I wonder if it will ever be another Carl Sagan. I hope so I have never heard a more soothing voice. every night when I come from work I listen to one of his episodes I feel privileged of sharing the same panet with such an inspiring human that's left us so young God bless you Carl whatever you are. You don't have to gaze at the Stars any more you are one of them. always in my heart.
Wish i had been born with the intellect of Carl Sagan and other prominent scientists. I would have loved to of spent my 70 years on Earth trying to understand the awesomeness of the Universe. I guess I have to count myself lucky that I wasnt completly vegative in ascribing all this wonderment to an invisible GOD.
You still can. No matter how long it takes, if you have the thirst for knowledge and progress, you will learn. No matter the age, no matter the subject. As long as you keep asking why, and keep searching for answers, you will find the intellect within you. I hope in the past 10 years you’ve been able to grow in your aspirations.
The loss of Dr, Sagan still seems both premature and unfair. He represented the best of our species.....someone so valuable I wish we would have been able to make him immortal.
I was about 12 to 14 years old when I read in an astronomy book about things called quasars. I was intrigued by the apparent colossal amount of energy being attributed to these things. One of the many factors that resulted in me becoming a scientist.
seriously, right? I was so pissed when i found out they were blocked. Ive been watching the cosmos episodes on a loop pretty much..one day i get on...they are gone :(
This century will mark humanities first fumblings out of our solar system. People living today will actually get to see other worlds first hand and we may even know of living things on other worlds. As humanity moves forward we will see this as probably our most pioneering moment, as well as our most embarrassing. Thinkers like Sagan will be an excellent guide for our collective consciousness.
Wouldn't it be great if Cosmos was redone, using updated Utra HD Footage and animation and using inserts of Sagan's beautiful narration. I'd watch that.
Yes. And science is a universal language that tells us, in our insignificance, that we should love each other in our sameness. A universal language that we can all pursue together, rather than separate ourselves through unfounded beliefs.
Why the hell does everyone have to bring a god into this? Just watch and feel amazed that such things exist and dance in the natural world, regardless of whether or not a god or gods created them.
Tanya lewis ... The fact that you wrote "Sun/Energy" leads me to believe that you don't quite understand what energy is... it's not some ambiguous cloud that you can draw on to prove a point in your arguments. Energy is defined as the ability to do work. That's all. It's almost solely either some form of kinetic energy in particles or potential energy stored in bonds. It has no mystical "meaning". It's a discreet, quantized, empirical thing.
I am sorry, lol, you have missed my point or I yours? either way who cares, not really that interested. Yes I do understand energy I am a scientist. All the best for the new year... :-)
All wrong Superstition is part of being human, an evolutionary survival tool like racism. Only reason and logic suppress those two and any other one in the way for real progress and prosperity… and before anyone make claims I will finish up saying marxism is crap! And those who follow its doctrines are fools
@StOnion Apparently, nothing actually collies when two galaxies collide, on average, due to the vast spaces in between, like an atom. So surviving this wouldnt really be the hard part, surviving the red giant our sun will become will be, due to having to find a new home.
So do I but he is wrong. We are not in the outskirts of the Galaxy on the Sagittarius arm. We now are more inward in the Orian spur. We are where the awful white sun is.
Kinda like Genesis being set at a time when the Indus Valley already had a thriving society. It must have been very inconvenient for them to be going about their usual daily business when another religion's god decided to suddenly create everything all over again.
According to Greek mythology, the galaxy was formed by Hera, who poured milk from her breast into the sky when she discovered that Zeus had tricked her into nursing the young Heracles(Hercules)..... something from ancient Greek literature...how they knew things like that?...
It did not start as gas. It was a SINGULARITY - the next step being a DUALITY, then it split again and again... And the REASON it split is: DARK ENERGY aka spin
if everything is moving equaly away from a central point, how can galaxies collide? I mean, how could a galaxy change its path if its moving equally away from each other?
Space is curved and gravity attracts. Even passing near to something else can disturb the course you're on and deflect you on to a new course. This is why we get meteors, comets, and asteroids on courses we didn't expect and it's why the gravitational attraction of the large planets could be used to slingshot the Voyager probes toward the outer planets.

Thank goodness that Sagan lived amongst us and was able to share his genius.
His death so young is a terrible loss to us all
Amen to that!
what an inspiration
He was a treasure for humanity
We were lucky; not to have been to far ahead of his time nor behind to have missed him!
I miss this gentle and cultured man that shared with us his huge knowledge of the marvel of the universe
Thank you!! Very well composed!!
Ditto
Cheers and ...!!!!!
Yeah very well put, he had a very warm and comfortable style of presentation which came from a good, decent soul

If humanity can just survive itself...
How did they do those graphics back then? Even the room with the big screen was impressive. I’m blown away by the computer model animations too.
Vangelis' music is so haunting and soothing at the same time.
Carl Sagan was the best narrator. I miss him.
"Systematic grace"... lovely words as always from Mr Sagan.
Almost 10 years since you were here..., you have and interesting channel.
pure bliss

Taking a hit from the bong and off to space with Dr. Sagan
It's what Mr. X would have wanted.
His voice is so soothing.
I remember watching this with my parents when I was in high school. We loved this show.
I was 13 when Cosmos aired and it was the Ultimate Best Thing Ever.
I still have the 1981 Cosmos calendar
I had been sent to Church day camp, and I wasn't feeling any faith. I felt lost, but my grandma, who was trying to convert me, had a tv with no cable, so I watched PBS and saw The Cosmos. I was weeping at the beauty of the universe. Nothing had made more sense to me.

i listen to him every night as his voice lulls me to sleep. Have the best cosmic dreams that way
Yes
same here ! Though your comment is 10 years old , hope youre still alive ha ha !
@Boltzmann Brain still listen to him most nights and play vangelis constantly
@@infiniteformless I'm more amazed you kept the same account this entire time!!
Guess I'm not alone then.🙂
I love Sagan
If they have his isolated narrations, they should do a series of modern imagery with his voice over. Would be extraordinary.

I wonder what Carl Sagan would say after seeing some of the photos take by Hubble and Webb.
He Would Be In Awe Just Like We Are!!!👍

@@thegreatowigimon2 Lovely post
You still can…. So few have his intellect but if your interested in it, you can learn it
@@Kinobambinogod doesn’t exist so unfortunately your comment is just word sslad
When Sagan produced "Cosmos" in 1979, it wasn't yet known that our own Milky Way Galaxy is a barred spiral.
Yes, I grew up believing that it’s just a regular spiral.
Watching this is hypnotic. Do you agree?
If there was ever a time we could use Carl Sagan, it would right now. All the great legends seem to be gone when society needs them the most.
How are you Zac
@@Kinobambino Wonder how ten years has gone for him lol.
no he was there when society needed him most, society just didn't give AF
Great to see that some people are using their minds.
We can never stop advancing science
The loss of Dr, Sagan still seems both premature and unfair. He represented the best of our species.....someone so valuable I wish we would have been able to make him immortal.
Happy Birthday Carl.
Love Carl... /sigh. Love to think he's cruisin' the Cosmos in his Ship of the Imagination. =)
I find fascinating old comments, are you still alive?
@@gabrielswayze4506 what?
Wish this man was alive to see the camera we have now 😪
You had this channel since more than 10 years ago... and suddenly still active, wow.
Miss him so much
Carl was a great, great man, if an attacker came with a sword, immediately I would give my life for such a great hero!
So we have a deal then Mr Anderson
It comforts me to think that Sagan is, in some ways, collaborating with the “ultimate creator “ somewhere in the vastness of the universe.
"Vangelis - Création du monde" this one is always haunting.
Totally agree, perfect for this
Admired!
I was about 12 to 14 years old when I read in an astronomy book about things called quasars. I was intrigued by the apparent colossal amount of energy being attributed to these things. One of the many factors that resulted in me becoming a scientist.
People tend to pass over that Carl Sagan is just like Socrates, Plato, Aristotle. He is a modern day philosopher.
seriously, right? I was so pissed when i found out they were blocked. Ive been watching the cosmos episodes on a loop pretty much..one day i get on...they are gone :(
interesting video and very informative
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Carl SAGAN

When you can really take this to heart, it changes ones life.. it helps to have a second point of view of course. 🤷♂️
very interesting thanks

Wouldn't it be great if Cosmos was redone, using updated Utra HD Footage and animation and using inserts of Sagan's beautiful narration. I'd watch that.
And also subtitles

A galaxy consists of stars together AND stars apart ON BALANCE.
we really are a piece of dust compared to the cosmic empire
Perhaps the better question is not 'Why anything exists?' but 'How anything exists?'
muito bom
Thank goodness that my public school education included Carl Sagan's Cosmos.
The majesty of the galaxeees
Why the hell does everyone have to bring a god into this? Just watch and feel amazed that such things exist and dance in the natural world, regardless of whether or not a god or gods created them.
God is a meaning for Sun / Energy and universal consciousness is all. It is humanities confusion that has made is seem like it means something else.

Mountain dew is the best soda ever made?
Carl sagan
If Carl Sagan were alive today, he would be roasted by Fox News.
Yes and CNN because he's a straight white male mansplaining
Carl ❤
yes my good man
His voice was soothing and his knowledge of galaxies were unequal at the time.
Much has been changed since he passed away.
But not out there.
I think the most hilarious thing he says is "Galaxies sometimes blow themselves up..." I'd like to take that out of context any day
Hello my friend, are you okay?
We don't have that many stewards like Carl sagan.
22,000 views ?.... thats the problem
Us looking in to space is kind of like in those movies when people can move so fast that everything appears to be frozen
If he were alive today, and able to "see" black holes with the rest of us..
I love all the videos, but why they're not complete
I get ta learned things.
@MrMalavon yes, galaxies are so big a planet or star collision would be very rare

@skyliner288 How did we not discover "the earth" till columbus? I thought we always knew about the earth.
Kinda like Genesis being set at a time when the Indus Valley already had a thriving society. It must have been very inconvenient for them to be going about their usual daily business when another religion's god decided to suddenly create everything all over again.
