Lyrics:
[Sagan]
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 when-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 billion suns
The rising of the milky way
The Cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths
Of exquisite interrelationships
Of the awesome machinery of nature
I believe our future depends powerfully
On how well we understand this cosmos
In which we float like a mote of dust
In the morning sky
But the brain does much more than just recollect
It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes
it generates abstractions
The simplest thought like the concept of the number one
Has an elaborate logical underpinning
The brain has its own language
For testing the structure and consistency of the world
[Hawking]
For thousands of years
People have wondered about the universe
Did it stretch out forever
Or was there a limit
From the big bang to black holes
From dark matter to a possible big crunch
Our image of the universe today
Is full of strange sounding ideas
[Sagan}
How lucky we are to live in this time
The first moment in human history
When we are in fact visiting other worlds
The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean
Recently we've waded a little way out
And the water seems inviting

“He was 62. Sagan died of pneumonia at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, where he had a bone-marrow transplant in April 1995, a center spokeswoman said. The center had identified his disease as myelodysplasia, a form of anemia also known as preleukemia syndrome. ” – CNN

Sagan stuck gallantly to what he could know for sure. That’s why the series is still relevant 30 years later.
He speculates on many a mythos, and compares it to what we now know. No leap of faith is required to recognize the beauty in the universe.
Listening to Carl …
Listening to Carl Sagan makes me a proud human been and the music makes me melancholic. In his words reveals a deep confidence in our species. I still miss Carl.

Are there things which perhaps you yourself cannot be sure enough of. Because the evidence, or the interpretation of the evidence, lacks the ability to sway you to a confident conclusion.
God is an interpretation of existence. We don’t need supernature. If the supernatural can interact with nature, then is it not much like just another layer of the natural world we know, (eg. gravity) and if so, then why make the distinction, if it’s part of nature.
