Re: wisdom from old Carl Sagan book Message #3 Posted by Namir on 8 Apr 2011, 12:35 p.m., in response to message #2 by Mike Morrow
Indeed his TV shows is awesome. About 10 years ago I bought the DVD set and watched a few DVD. I need to go back and watch the whole series.
I also remember when Sagan would be a guest of Johny Carson on the Tonight Show. Johny would make fun of Sagan's use of the world "billion" in reporting the typical number of stars in a galaxy and the number of galaxies. As the years went by and I started buying Cosmos-related DVDs, I realized that Sagan was not exaggerating. Perhaps the only number he left out is the billions of universes that may well exist in the big, mighty, and mind-boggling multiverse.
