It's amazing how Sagan still continues to inspire - new people every day - despite his death fifteen years ago. It's as if he's still here. It's as if his words are being spoken fresh from his mouth as opposed to being repeated through a recording. It makes me unafraid of death, knowing how one man can continue to do so much without even being alive. I wish I had been born earlier. I wasn't even two years old when we lost this great man and his great mind. Rest in Peace, Carl Sagan.
July 20th 1969...I was four years old. For the first time, I distinctly remember being proud to be an American. Thanks to Neil, Buzz, Mike and the thousands of NASA employees and contractors who made that possible. I am forever awed and indebted to your service and commitment.
Hey Reid. I hope you still drop in to see the comments. It's a great thing you did here. You gave a beautiful context to man, a poet, and his words. The human condition is wild and varied. The Sagan (and Feynman series) always gives me hope. Thank you.
I can't believe they took down the pale blue dot video due to copyright. Those people seriously disgust me. They do not intend to share Carl Sagan's words with the world and have no plan to share with their own species. Shame on them. If only they can learn from Carl.
And that kind of acts one day truly will end human's curiosity and pursuit of exploration. We live in time which nationalism is on rise and we rarely hear word of mankind. We become more seperated year by year. Human individualism and ability to dream is being destroyed by unregulated capitalism. Also when dictators being called a heros truly show how degradation of human kind is on increase year by year.
Never more than at this moment in the modern era have we needed a profound reminder of the colossally important and exciting role that science, space exploration and the human quest for knowledge must continue to play in our development as a species.
I read comments from "trolls" and it makes me sad.. I come to these videos and read the comments by other people like me being inspired by actions we will never truly experience (not through lack of dreaming), and it gives me hope. And a smile
I really gear tears in my eyes every time I watch this. It does not get old to me at all. so awesome that we did that, We live in an age where man has walked on the moon.....
Thank you Neil, for giving all of us here on the pale blue dot...hope. Rest easy Hero, you earned to have your're name immortalized for all to know the achievements you gave us.
Carl Sagan understands our potential as a species. These videos as well as his TV show was his greatest gift to us. He offered enlightenment and a wealth of "purpose" as a person, and a human species. If everyone was as enlightened as Carl Sagan, who knows where we would be today.
I've watched this at least two dozen times over the years. It always gives me pause. It never gets old. It's such a boon to the world that Sagan recorded Pale Blue Dot's narration. I have it on Audible... I wish we'd have gotten more to do that, like Tolkien, Frankl or Hemingway.
Last night I clearly saw two different shooting stars in a span of about 15 minutes. I felt lucky. But I never thought I'd be lucky enough to see this beautiful series of videos featuring Carl Sagan. Thank you for your enlightening work.
I truly wish I was there to experience this live. It happened decades before I even came along so I can only imagine the feeling, but judging by my tears of joy just watching this I am quite convinced it must have been grand. I envy those who were there, and I can only hope we will venture back out there and experience something equally awesome before I depart again.
This is why I haven't lost hope for the world... not youtube, the world. It brings tears to my eyes to see all of these people watching these videos, and to see them wishing this man a happy birthday. This is a real man, he changed this world. I want to do the same, though I fear I cannot. I will try though. Swear it.
I think we have thousands of reasons to do the things we do. But telling them to someone is useless, because it’s not something you can express in words. It something you need to feel; to feel the beauty of the universe is to truly understand why we want to do these things.
Its my birthday today, and like every July 20, I stop and celebrate this amazing event in our history. Although I'm never sure why, it humbles and encourages me. Long live exploration and curiosity.
That budget slide sickens me. You hear the planners of future private Mars mission state it would cost $6 billion USD to send a few people to live permanently on Mars... subsequent trips would be about $4 billion USD and continue to get more affordable as time goes on. That is nothing when you compare it to the $12.68 billion USD that we are spending on new Gerald Ford class aircraft carriers. I wish I knew how to light up the minds of people all over the Earth with curiosity for the advancement of not only a few superpowers but for the entire human species.
The Curious Noob Ugh. I just get sad when I think about this... we're living in the teenage years of humanity's lifespan. We may not make it without an accident or the very death of our species. I hope we collectively decide to change over the following generations.
I feel like we're close, very close. Within a few generations, nobody will care what color their neighbors are, or where they came from, or who did what to who's grandfather, or what invisible space monster they worship. And then, at long last, we will throw off this these petty instincts that betray our animal ancestry and venture forth to stride the invisible ether of the universe forever as gods. Man, Sagan always makes me wax poetic.
and its even nicer to understand through that insignificant how truly significant we all really are. You are not just you, you are us. Welcome to the universe, its known you for longer than you have.
I never knew who carl sagan was he was before my time as a kid , i started watching voyager documentarys and he just has a gift as a science communicator.
Don't worry you are not alone. I feel like I have been robbed of this my entire life. I feel like when I was 10 my parents should have been trying to take me to meet Sagan... I feel like if I could have just met the man it would have changed my life so much sooner I might actually be contributing to his vision right now.
Yes a new one. I truly love and appreciate this series. Thank you for making them and please don't stop. I will continue to spread the message and these videos to as many people that I can. Much love and respect for everyone.
And here we are, in 2020, in the midst of all the darkness caused by the pandemic, a glimmer of light shines, a small hope. With the US, returning to Human Space flight in a few days, maybe, maybe, we'll go back and dare to dream like we did back them.
watching these late at night in your room and seeing the moon just through the clouds outside my window and thinking we've been theyre makes me proud to be human
This is from Sagan's great book the Pale Blue Dot, which is available as an audiobook partly read by himself. I listened to the entire chapter on the moon landings the other day, while working in the yard. A little lost in this video (which is greatly done in its own right) is the original point of the chapter, which is that the US didn't go to the moon for pride or prestige, but to show the Russians that the US had the biggest and most powerful rocket. The Gift of Apollo, Sagan states, is that it showed us the way to a form of enlightenment we wouldn't have had otherwise. Through our collective shortsightedness and stupidity, man became the work of legend and myth. We went to the Moon, and discovered Earth.
Mr. Armstrong. I am sitting here wondering how many cardboard boxes I sat in as a child... drawing gauges and dials inside... to make my own space capsule. Thank you (and all of your colleagues) for all the imaginations and dreams you gave us as children to walk in your footsteps and thank you for the example you set for us all. Godspeed Neil.
Mr. Armstrong, you stood taller than any of us. You were the culmination of our strive, accomplishment, and hope. Rest in peace, my friend, you deserve it.
Just imagine the balls it takes to be the first men to strap yourself into a giant tube filled with explosives for the purpose of traveling to a barren rock in an environment that kills you instantly when unprotected. Bravo Apollo astronauts, bravo.
If we long for our planet to be important, there is something we can do about it. We make our world significant by the courage of our questions and by the depth of our answers. - Carl Sagan
One of my best experience's in my life was a trip to the Space Kennedy Centre. Seeing the Saturn V rocket and all the mission plagues of the Apollo missions. Left a long lasting effect on me.

Eventually, billions of years from now the sun will engulf the earth and turn it into a molten hells cape. If we survive as a species to then, we must leave this planet and inhabit another exoplanet. If not, in 4-5 billion years, the sun will destroy all of us along with all other life on earth.

that video was taken from the mounted camera on the lunar rover. In regards to the panning and angles, it was a remote control camera that was attached to lunar rover, so at that time, it was preset to pan out and record the ascent stage of the lunar module.
I don't know what it is about this man, but he always gives me hope for the human race. We will survive ourselves, and when we do, we'll be fucking awesome.
These videos inspire my imagination. From nomadic hunters to space explorers. Life is beautiful and the truth to the evolution of us and are history is incredible. Even now, i can speak to the world. I am impatient, i am anxious and i am desperate to know the mysteries of our future. What lies ahead?
Thank you for your response. I have learned from that the lunar rover had a television camera, the Ground-Commanded Television Assembly (GCTA), and it could receive remote control commands from an operator on Earth, which were used to shoot the launch. There are other examples of the GCTA panning and zooming "on its own" when both astronauts are in the frame, away from its controls. It was also used to look around the landing site after the ascent stage has departed.
Why would ANYBODY dislike this video??? I see absofuckinglutely no reason to do so, not even the religious fundamentalists could possibly dislike this!

Gotcha right in the feels
I need to show some of Carl Sagan's speeches to my friends who don't appreciate spaceflight.
Istvan Szabó Is it really possible to not appreciate spaceflight ?
Stalysfa Apparently it is.
This is sampled from the audiobook narration of his 'Pale Blue Dot' book. It's a masterpiece.
I remember was a little kid when it happen I was 9 now I'm 57 and it still get to me that is why mankind need"s to go back and keep on going !
I can't believe they took down the pale blue dot video due to copyright. Those people seriously disgust me. They do not intend to share Carl Sagan's words with the world and have no plan to share with their own species. Shame on them. If only they can learn from Carl.
Thankfully, mirrors exist that have survived.
Jerry Pon they attempted to block my Apollo films worldwide... but thanks to the freedom of information act, the footage belongs to ALL of us.
If anybody wants to watch the “lost” Apollo films just search WAFFAHOUSE on RUclips...

THANK YOU !
On July 20, 1969, Man stepped on the Moon. On July 20, 2012, a man shot up a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. I think that speaks for itself.
Guys, we put men on THE FUCKING MOON!
This still astounds me.
And it does me my friend. Its a dam shame the world isn't behind us.
