    Default Greatest videos ever



    Im sure many of you by now have seen some of the videos in the link, or at least pale blue dot or Cosmos : a personal voyage

    However if you have not do your life a huge favour and watch them.

    They are : "The Sagan Series is a collection of tribute vidoes dedicated to the late, great Carl Sagan. Breath-taking cinematography and a mesmerising soundtrack lends a powerful scenery to Sagan's narration from his hit TV series, Cosmos: A Personal Voyage."

    Sagan Series

    Carl Sagan at his finest.

    The entire series is also available for stream on netflix. I think much of it can be dug up on youtube as well. It's like over 14 hours of pure astronomy bliss.

    I also enjoyed

    The OP's link is not working for me. Tried twice, but ended up on GoDaddy.com with the following message "NOTICE: This domain name expired on 02/10/2012 and is pending renewal or deletion."

    Eamon - The Cosmos series was so awesome I must have clapped my hands "billions and billions" of times after each show! He certainly enlightened many as to the world "up there" I was so sad when he passed

    When I first saw the movie "Contact", and the words "For Carl" came up, I had a big lump in my throat. At the time I didn't even know he had co-written the book, but I knew which Carl it had to be, and thought it a very nice tribute, and was very sorry for his passing.
