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

10 years ago today. Thanks for being a part of my weird and wild creative journey everyone. Here's to 10 more together. Peace and love. ✌️
I came because I remembered the date the song was uploaded.
Love the 10 year tribute
I've just found you! today's a good day! ✌🏼
Thank you for all your inspirational videos.
Thanks for making these, they kinda helped shape me into me.
This song changed the trajectory of my life: after being disillusioned with musical theatre and losing a bit of myself, I saw this over 10 years ago. I read everything I could from Sagan, and others, and decided that I wanted to study astrophysics. I’ve earned my PhD now, have been published in scientific journals, and work to bring the inspiration that this brought me to others.
I thank you, profoundly.
Congratulations! It got me a bit emotional reading this. Thanks for sharing. How can I find your publications? I once wanted to be an astrophysicist myself. Studied a lot into the subject, but my field is computer engineering and neuroscience instead. I'll always love astronomy and physics with a passion of course. Really wishing you the absolute best in your journey ahead, let's keep pushing science forward.
Same here. Didn't get my PhD, but I've studied a lot and have fallen in love with a scientific way of thinking.
That's amazing! Good for you!
Wow. 🎉
That is amazing! We should never be afraid to pivot. I have done it a few times in my career(s). :D
It's 2023. And I'm back here to say that this song is timeless and incredible!
Indeed!
Me too! :D
😂😂 it's like returning home
This is my first time listening in probably 8-9 years
Same, I listened to this song before like back in 2021
I'd rather be 11 years late than to have never found this piece of musical GOLD 🔥
YOSSS
yess
Yeah it's good.
I found it 10-11 years ago haha
Correction: I found melody sheep in 2009!
"If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe" - Jesus Carl I've only got an hour.
And yet why is it that such a infathomable number seems small, just in being finite?
hikari steinmetz and yet* stupid spell check.
You still couldn't make a pie from scratch in an hour!
Well then you don't have time for interstellar hydrogen to collect into stars, undergo nuclear fusion to transform it into other heavier elements, the stars to go supernova, the resulting nebula to form the planet earth, the elements to combine into basic organic compounds, those organic compounds to form single celled organisms, and those single celled organisms to evolve into wheat, apples, cinnamon, chickens (for the eggs), sugar cane, etc. I suppose you could go out and buy pre-evolved apples, but then that's not really from scratch.
BIG Dave I made a pie! And it only took 7.6 Trillion years!
RIP Stephen Hawking. The legend.
melodysheep I'll be honest, I always find myself coming back to this video on days like this, or the anniversary of Dr. Sagan's death, and it always makes it a little bit better to come here and see you leave a comment on this video.
Thank you, Melodysheep, for making my favorite song of all time.
Now I have to listen to every Symphony of Science song with Dr. Hawking in it. RIP.
He will be missed by many and his discoveries and contributions for the rest of our time in this universe
He was a great man and a fantastic scientist
Just as there is something fitting to Stephen Hawking passing away on Pi Day, there is something fitting to listen to this song now, to feel some little sense of how vast and wonderful he found the universe
melodysheep we need new song video about hawking
The Carl Sagan parts make me cry, it's like everything he said was deeply philosophical and beautiful and moving. Rest in peace, your heart was made of starstuff
Same
2:13 Ah Whoop
I'm biased I guess because I've lived in part of his lifetime, but I would want Carl to speak for humankind to other species. He's the perfect mix of intelligence, passion, and benevolence. I miss him, and I wish I could listen to him speak on current day issues.
Same
Don't make me emotional😭
Combining two of my favourite things: Music and science! Beautiful! -Andrew
Oh wow, you’re here xD
Ha! Now that I think about it, music and science exist as my two favourite things too! ....Oh...well I also really REALLY enjoy old sci-fi and classic (particularly Hammer) horror films...and methadone...that's really more of a necessity than a "favourite thing" though....and food!! Good heavens, I forgot food! Huh....in retrospect, Sheet Music Boss, I suppose that there remain a fair number of things that I feel unavoidably attached too.

Oh hi
Yaaaa
"A still more glorious dawn awaits. Not a sunrise but a galaxy rise. A morning filled with 400 billion suns with the rising of the Milky Way."
My favorite part of the song too 😊
the most satisfying words of the song
I listened to the Cosmos episode this was lifted from. He was trying to describe the possible view from a world well above the galactic plane. Instead of seeing a smear of stars as we see the Milky Way from within the disk the view from above the plane would get to see the full spread of the spirals.
I’d like to think of it as a possible future for humanity. A human presence that spans most of the 400 billion-or-so stars. A civilization whose exploits would utterly dwarf the grandest human exploits to the present day.
Yo I read that just as he was singing it
One of my favorite sagan qoutes, man had the articulation of a poet.
Happy birthday Carl!
melodysheep Ahh, I'm glad someone else remembered!!!!
melodysheep this was just on adult swim and I thought it was an OK song so I came here
melodysheep this is best one for the best man
melodysheep Thanks for changing my life, for the better. Couldn't be any more serious about this. Thanks John B
RIP Stephen Hawking. Thank you for Everything...
"If we do not destroy ourselves, we will one day venture to the stars." That's telling. We have so much potential as human beings, yet we are so destructive at the same time.
Mankind's destructive nature, perversely, is what led to many great technological leaps, advances in medicine and engineering innovations that the scientific community co-opted and tweaked to better our collective lot and hopefully extend our species existence in the universe. From radar to rocketry to nuclear power, much of what allows us to discover our universe has its roots in man yearning to kill more efficiently.
@@Parpyduck Sad but true. Look at Leonardo Da Vinci... He created lots of cool things like a functioning medieval scuba diving suit with a fully working linen asophagus for air... Yet in the end his mind was put to working on things like ballistas that fired multiple projectiles at one time.
es así mi perro
There is no "if" anymore. It probably was in the 1970th but we wasted time and let opportunities pass
If only we hadn't invented the money, sigh.
In 500 years, Carl Sagan is going to remembered among all the great scientists in human history.
I've been listening to this for over 7 years. Still Awesome.
Gordon Wolters same here
Gordon Wolters ditto
Same
I'm going on 9 😭
I know man, I've been listening to this between 6-8 years and it never gets old. In fact, it makes me cry most times... so beautiful
"The sky calls to us.
If we do not destroy ourselves
will one day venture to the stars."
Oh I love that! And I love Carl Sagan he changed my life for the better as a young teen.
10 years later still jamming. RIP both of my favorite heroes... Cosmos saved my life and changed how I viewed the world. I pulled out of a nose dive of destructive behaviors (addiction and belief in ridiculous things we're gonna not talk about) and decided to embrace the ideas Carl and Stephen stood for. Courageous exploration of the truth with no regard for where it might lead even if it changes everything? Sign me up. I wish I had been granted a chance to tell these two men just how profoundly their books, thoughts, and lives changed me. Spreading their legacy will have to be enough.
Probably would be a late reply but yeah it brought me back from the same situation as well, depression and all. Changed my views of how I used to see nature.👍
Cosmos was a game-changer for me...the history and pursuit of science are the greatest things to me.
Although your adamant search for the truth both inspires and causes me worry, I hope all is well with you, stranger.
How are you doing these days?
Agreed sir, i think i had a similar experience with what sagan has done for me
I first found this video around 2012, in high school, when I was in the middle of asking big questions about faith, reality, the universe and my place in it. To this day I still get shivers when I hear this song and listen to Sagan and Hawking's words. My favourite line is at the end, where Sagan says the surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean ... and the water is inviting. Beautiful.
Sagan was a hero to me and I miss him. Try to find a way to watch the original Cosmos, by any means necessary.
MC Sagan and DJ Hawkings bringing the quantium beats!
+Oliver R Hilarious xD
Tf lol 😂😂😂
"We are a way for the Cosmos to know itself."
-Carl Sagan
hm.. interesting..
way too anthropocentric
Way too little philosophical comprehension Oktay.
How so, Oktay? We are not separate from the cosmos. We are just a subset that is able to store information from one moment to the next.
I love that idea
12 years passed and this remix still ocupy a special place on my neuronal network.
Carl Sagan era incrível :')
Same i used to listen to these on repeat everyday. Science and music together is perfection
You're good people.
Same, I still find myself randomly saying the apple pie line, all these years later.
absolutely, rent free
It really touched me when it said, "A sunrise of 400 million suns."
400 billion suns, not millions. There's an estimated amount of 400 billion stars that each have their own planet or planets just within our galaxy, The Milky Way.
Billion. Emphasis on the "buh."
Sagan was so well known for his pronunciation of "billion" that the number 4,000,000,000 is sometimes jokingly called a "sagan."
R.I.P Carl Sagan. A terrible loss to all of mankind.
now both of them are dead );
No, not a terrible loss to mankind.... An incredible gain to mankind, that has now sadly gone. (Semantics I know, but still...)
he didn't have to live long enough to watch Mankind see its end coming from climate change and decide, with both eyes open, that larger margins for shareholders were more important
Don't be sad that he died be happy that we had him we are able to see his great work in science.his atoms are now part of us
No they are still alive. Their IDEAS are in BOOKS and BOOKS are greatest invention of HUMAN BEINGS ever made.. BY it, person who may be dead more than decades or century ago, he can talk to you directly. Our CARL and HAWKING and more heroes are still ALIVE. they are IMMORTAL..
Lots of love from 🇮🇳INDIA TO melodysheep
my life would be very different, and not better, if it wasn't for Carl Sagan.
I remember this girl I had a crush on showed me this at her house. She had it on one of those mini vinyls. With all the right little cracks in the sound it sounded majestic. Hope she’s ok❤️
She must be pretty awesome.
Crush well placed.
This is on a vinyl record?...
@@kingtiger2.2002 yeah, I have no idea how many or where she got it. That’s how I first heard it though.
@@kingtiger2.2002 this was actually older than 12 years. a lot older
I have probably listened to this 50x and every single time I cry. I don't know why.
It's powerful, and Carl, not only did he have such mastery of words, poetry and the ability to easily explain, but he truly believed in our collective greatness.
Me too. Every time make me cry
I want to believe we can live up to our potenital, but I fail to see the way. Dont give up hope.
@@lakuspakus8782
Humanity is capable beautiful dreams and futures, simultaneously they can create horrible nightmares and suffering.
You cry because it makes you realize that a still more glorious dawn awaits!
Hope these two are chilling together in the stars now. R.I.P.
“If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.”
― Albert Einstein
14 years and still coming back to this!
I remember when it first came out, I was 12 and fascinated about astronomy. What a throwback, still very good song tho 😊
I was in the middle of my bachelors degree; I had the same reaction at 20 as you did at 12. That's the power of philosophical physicists like Sagan. Their works resonate universally and reach to the deepest parts of ourselves.
same here, watching this stuff in secondary school. Moved on up into engineering.
2:47 "visiting other worlds" his voice goes so deep i get chills every time
Reneevee133 ikr.
That's the way it was in the show. It's from Episode 7, about 10-15 minutes in. "Sometimes I think, how lucky we are to live in this time; the first moment in human history when we are, in fact, visiting other worlds."
Carl would be proud of this video
I was just thinking that very thing, although it is a shame to spoil his magnificent voice with Auto-Tune..
+WhiteDwarfVR4 It's the only way to make his straight spoken voice 'sing' for the purpose of the song.
its not a problem at all, auto tune is a tool just like anything and in this song it works pretty well. rip sagan. smoke one for you.
It is pretty dope... I come back to this every couple of years...
My dad had me listen to this and a few others when I was about 7. I already had an interest in science and this only skyrocketed it. Thank you so much for changing my childhood for the better!
Your dad is a G
I discoverd this today, it's so wonderful, I can't believe it, it makes me cry warm tear as I write this comment, Carl and Steven are dearly missed and as someone else said in the comments, more than ever we need people like them to help humanity go forward and hopefully, not destroy ourselves
"The surface of the Earth is a shore of the cosmic ocean, recently we have waded out a little ways, and the water seems inviting" That is the line that fills me with hope
❤
When Sagan writes a cookbook no matter the food step one will be 'invent the universe'
Merel Danoe He'll have a job writing that cookbook, having been dead for 19 years.
Merel Danoe Actually you must first invent existence. For there may very well be an infinite number or universes all residing in the same infinite existence...(studying string theory right now and it's simultaneously opening my eyes and blowing my mind..
SetSutekh if you wait more than 15 billion years we'll give you 50% off.
+Steampunk Juggernaught [Channel dead] days deep
There's some argument over the true author of the recipes of that group as there are people who started a club who believe that someone called Jehovah wrote the recipes but other people don't believe in him
I went out and looked up at the stars this morning. thank you Carl Sagan
I don't why, but this video makes me so like, sad but happy, because Carl Sagan and all those excellent scientists like Albert Einstein or Steven Hawking and even Nikolai Tesla are gone, but for a fact, what ever the after life is, they are exploring the Universe.
Almost seven years later and I still ADORE this.
Its Legendary
Absolutely!
@mask me And I'm STILL here listening!!!!!! :)
@@rachels.9984 Yup :)
Virat Kohli 😊🎉
it's the "If we don't destroy ourselves." that gets me every time. We are capable of so much but we don't listen to anything but our animal natures.
Carl would tell you how anthropocentric that sounds. He'd also chortle saying "As if there is one animal nature".
I am not understanding what you are saying. Could you explain clearer?
+Angelus Nielson Humans are not the only animal.
Automated Miner Did I say they were?
Hint, no I didn't.
+Angelus Nielson Hint: you did. You said 'we' are capable of so much (i.e. humans) but we only give in to our "animal nature", as if there is either intelligence or one animal nature. A less anthropocentric way of putting it would be just to change 'animal' to 'human', thus making it 'human nature'.
Still a bop even after 13 years. What a legend. Don't let this die
a decade later I'm still captivated by this
This autotune is made of star stuff.

Jeremy Madsen - you are so right
ramon lao - you are so wrong
Every time I see this comment it makes me laugh.

Carl Sagan: "Let me make this simple for you. Nuclear war bad. Space exploration good."
*politician raises hand*
Politician: "Wait... what?"
Oh bill
👍
Had forgotten about this. And this is one of those things that should not be forgotten. We need these truths now more than ever.
back again. My kids are growing up with this.
"If we don't destroy ourselves" Christ so potent. Like we put ourselves perpetually on the brink.
Or that were are perpetually on the brink even when it doesn't feel like it.
_Cosmos_ was made during the Cold War, when nuclear annihilation was a distinct possibility. But you're right. The powerful of the world find all kinds of ways to gamble with our future.
Or like there's no other way to actually 'be' than to be standing next to 'not to be', and examining that border and its risk will always cause a potent fear.
i get chills every time i listen to carl sagan's voice in the chorus. So incredibly soothing and reassuring.
I agree. The chord chosen for the word "sky" is so badass. "The sky calls to us ..."
“A still more glorious dawn awaits” is fucking beautiful.
13 years later, this song and video still make my skin tingle. I'm struggling through the worst depression of my life right now, and this video has reminded me that wonder and optimism and hope exist. Thank you.
A still more glorious dawn awaits my bud.
Watching Carl's shows... he was smart enough/educated enough to reason about the universe, humble enough to recognize he didn't have all the answers, and it doing so, realized the best outcome was to inspire another generation of thinkers. We stand on the shoulders of giants.
2:18 "Awww shit Hawking just rolled in! He about to drop some heat!!!!"
You are amazing
He dropped heat so hot it had to be measured in kelvin 👌🏻
@@hannahscholtzz7355 Lololol
also measure its coolness in nanokelvin@@hannahscholtzz7355
Lmao
Should be required to watch as part of the science curriculum.
I am here because my college Astronomy professor assigned this video!
Couldn't agree more! I watched it when came on TV back in the 1980's. Truly a profound science series!!
if I ever have kids I'm going to be playing them all these videos from a very young age
hanna thompson my dad did that. I have been listening to this song for years.
@@brittanyhogue217 Lame
you ever stumble onto a content creator you love, and then browse through their back catalog, and realize they were actually a content creator you found years ago, loved at the time, lost track of, and they managed to both change brands in the intervening years, still keep a through-thread, and *still* be something you like watching?
Because that just happened to me.
Hi Melodysheep, I found you years ago with this exact song, and then I found you again with your Life Beyond series just a month or two ago.
I listened to this as my first song of 2024 looking at the sunrise. Still a more glorious dawn awaits indeed. Cheers everyone!
This is one of the most important songs of all time.. and most people don't understand this.
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.” - Carl Sagan
He never said that. Never.
@@saganandroid4175 Lmao imagine Carl saying " Know " instead of " Known ", literally double digit IQ shit.
@@yakivpopavich Not just that, he never said it even with/out the typo.
Whenever I need to be inspired, I pop back in and watch this and it gives me goosebumps every single time! Thank you so much for creating it and sharing it...
0:50 give me chills everytime
"Space is filled with a network of wormholes, you might emergence somewehere else in space, somewhen else in time"
Broke me into tears.
I just heard Neil say on the show "A still more glorious dawn awaits......."
To me, this is an amazing tribute to Carl, to an amazing show, Neil was definitely a good choice to pass the torch. I just wonder how many quotes from the first COSMOS I've missed Neil say.
Love the Carl Sagan tributes.
Brian Cox also quoted Sagan in his Universe and Solar System series. Sagan was, and still is an inspiration to so many people. He achieved so much and he was a true champion of the world.
We need people like Carl Sagan more than ever now. We're living in a time where ignorance, misinformation, and tribalism are running absolutely rampant...
We're capable of so much more as a species; we just need to see it.
Here again, this time celebrating the clearest images of our universe being released today. Cheers everyone.
A wonderful way to remember a great man.
I don't normally make comments on videos but you, melodysheep, deserve accolades heaped upon you. Carl Sagan is one of the few people I consider a hero of mine and a champion for life everywhere. This is a beautiful tribute, poignant, clever and beautiful. A great way to introduce people to a man who so elegantly brought science to people in the most accessible way ever. Thankyou for making this - I'm sure Dr. Sagan would be proud. Also you should send this to his wife, Ann Druyan, as I'm sure she would absolutely love it. One day we shall all return to the stars, one way or another. Peace to you.
Eloquently said, you took the words right out of my mouth. Such a lovely tribute to one of the most beautiful minds to have graced our presence in the not too distant past. Yes, Carl truly would be proud. If you don't know about this song, then you cannot possibly be a true Carl Sagan fan. If necromancy were a true thing, I would revive him from the dead so he could convince humanity to work for itself instead of "against".
9 years ago, a student teacher suggested that I should check out this video. It was my first exposure to Carl Sagan. Intrigued, I rented Cosmos from my local library. I then read Sagan's Cosmos and Pale Blue Dot. This video introduced me to a man that inspired me to become a physicist.
"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!"
LOVE.
This song has unlocked many doors for me. Without it, I would not be on the path im on today.
Tonight, on the most recent episode of the new Cosmos, I basically quoted this song. I know that it's from the original Cosmos, but this remix was powerful enough to make it into the new version. I know enough about Ann Druyan to know this wasn't a coincidence. Congratulations, John. You've been immortalized.
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
That's why I'm here now. :)
Which episode?
"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."-Dr. Carl Sagan
The late, great Dr. Carl Sagan had the mind
of a scientist, and the heart of a poet. ❤
"The sky calls to us. If we do not destroy ourselves, we will one day venture to the stars" Wow...
On the final episode of the new Cosmos series, when DeGrasse Tyson suddenly kept silent and it came the speech of Sagan, while on screen was one of the biggest space pictures ever taken, I started to cry so much that my mother paused the DVD. I always cry at his words, they´re so... beautiful.
+SpaceWaifuu What are you, Gay? Ha!
+Peter “Wife” Beater its not gay its *FABULOUS*
+SpaceWaifuu Carl Sagan was incredibly inspiring and optimistic about our future as a species. He has a way of getting people to tear up when they realize just how insignificant our world is, and how much of a gift it is that we're here.
Lutranereis What are you, Gay? Ha!
+Peter “Wife” Beater whats wrong with being fabulous? Must be better than beating your wife
I'd say RIP Stephen Hawking but the conservation of energy means he'll blaze on for a very long time
I remember listening to this when it only had 10,000 views. It's terrific.
2 legends we've lost to time, that we need them more than ever. Rest in peace carl and stephen. 😔
It makes me cry
Like all the time!
Are you serious?

My brain just exploded, reverted to original state and then imploded.
Yep, I still come back to this
He left a legacy of brilliance, and he and Dr. Hawking will always be missed. I miss their intelligence, insight and humanity.
Carl Sagan will never die :,,,,,,)
If he were alive right now I would hug him
me too
+MuZZa909FuZZa His atoms were scattered, but they were always atoms, weren't they? His idea and personality is what created him; that is amongst us, he lives forever.
+Narania234 His memes are long-lived for sure.
+MuZZa909FuZZa His words will impact people for generations to come, but eventually, the universe will fall into entropy and not even he will be remembered.
"Except for hydrogen and helium, every atom in the Sun and the Earth was synthesized in other stars. The silicon in the rocks, the oxygen in the air, the carbon in our DNA, the gold in our banks, the uranium in our arsenals were all made thousands of light-years away and billions of years ago. Our planet, our society and we ourselves are built of star stuff." - Carl Sagan
We are the way for the universe to know itself.
+LucisFerre1 think about it like this though. all that matter came from somewhere. a grand element. condensed with all the particles in a potential substance capable of creating a universe. w/e that element was, was given the nuclear theory. probably how we discovered nuclear theory for the atom bomb. as our elements combine and turn, will eventually condense and burn as the stars are doing, creating the densest matter in the universe. soon. their gravitational force will pull themselves back together. condensing. cycling. inevitably starting this whole existence over again. i believe i figured out the universe. but i have no proof of course, only logic. XD
❤❤
Didn't the big bang make a little bit of lithium though
This video was uploaded 11 years ago and for me this is the best music video or whatever we call this.
Yes this was one of the originals. I still come here.
Im not very good at singing songs but here is a try
UUUOOOPP OOHH UUOOOPP OHHH OHHH UUOPPP OOHH
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 wheb-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 billions suns
The rising of the milky way
So epic
"Our future depends powerfully on how well we understand this cosmos."
-Carl Sagan
How profound
This song is a core memory.
Carl Sagan and this song I heard from like 13 years ago inspired me to change careers and go into Aerospace dynamics. You never know who one's vision and art can change a strangers life. Thank you!
I went into astronomy! I always come back to this when I feel a loss of motivation.
I had this video open just to listen in general and was about to hit play, RIGHT before I saw the news... He's seen his glorious dawn... RIP, Professor Stephen Hawking...
To the OP:
I have been listening to this song for a few years.
I know it word for word.
I click "repeat" at least three times in a row each time comes up on my playlist.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo creative!!!!!!!
RIP Carl, still miss you buddy.
The world has become so "noisy", would be nice to have your voice of reason still around.
Same!
Missing Carl Sagan. Missing his ability to make science and the Cosmos so approachable.
Thank you MS... You are awesome at keeping his ideas relavant and accessible.
I remember finding this when I couldn’t sleep and was a little depressed as I had just started High School and started experiencing several chronic illnesses that I still struggle with today. This helped change my perspective.
Even after 5 years I still can't get enough of this awesome video. Thanks MelodySheep, your skill, talent is addicting!
R.I.P Dr Carl Sagan.
Carl Sagan is not dead - He's alive as long as we remember who he was, for those of you under 50 - we'll meet him in VR in a few decades and talk to him directly
THATS how high I am
THAT'S FRUCKING AWESOME!
Kinda pissed I’m just finding this song now.
Enjoy! There are a lot of amazing Symphony of Science videos
Same dude, same
Don’t be pissed. Be happy you found it. Many people will never know of it. Of all the songs in the world it’s my favorite.
After hearing about the movie about Stephen Hawking, wouldn't it be great to see one about Carl ?
He truly was an underrated scientist/philosopher, wasn't he?
@@solariumtrismegistus1070 Yeah, he was underrated.
Or was he (Vsauce music plays)
