The Sagan Series

Just discovered this wonderful compilation of 9 short videos that I hadn't seen before. They were produced by Reid Gower from Carl Sagan's audio book called The Pale Blue Dot. Very compelling stuff IMO, especially against the backdrop of the very exciting and successful SpaceX launch. http://saganseries.com/

Cheers, Marcus

Whoa how did I miss this thread before!

Many thanks Marcus, I look forward to watching this.

EDIT:
Oh.. okay... I just realised how I missed it-
It's because it wasn't posted in Astronomy Books & Media where I regularly look through for good things to watch and read.

I think there would be quite a few people interested in this. Mr Moderators please would you kindly be able to move this into said section.

Even after I had watched those videos countless times already and listened to the audiobook regularly, I still find Sagan's Pale Blue Dot humbling.

Thanks
