+OneSmallStep At this point on our blue dot, we are distraught children. But I see a paradigm shift coming, and Sagan certainly had his place in the birth pangs of it.
Carl Sagan was a modern sage. An amazing person of wisdom, strength, intelligence, and compassion. He was the kind of person this world could use a lot more of. He is missed.
My favorite quote of all time. "For all our failings, despite our limitations and fallibility's, we humans are capable of greatness." Thank you Mr. Sagan for doing your part to enhance the scientific literacy of this world. We miss you.
Coupling Carl Sagan's narration to the up-to-date videos really drives home Sagan's point that we are evolving continuously- a very nice little prize. There were no wind farms, Iraqi fire fields, Deepwater oil fires before Sagan died- and now they are just normal recent memories. Yet, they fit as backgrounds perfectly as he pointed out the people that reach the stars will not be like us- they will be new versions of us. A hopeful point- troubles come and go, but time and change are continuous. Thanks!
No anti west hate crimes, no Islamic shooting sprees on the streets of Paris....indeed it was a good time, when men where men and others kept to their own. Their own dusty, empty realms instead if flooding into civilised countries to live off their systems that those countries forged from the blood of their people and the fruit of the earth upon which they lived, simply to better the world. For abolition of slavery what do they get? For science what do they get? For technology what do they get? Kalashnikov rounds fired at satirical news papers. Bombs at teenage concerts. Women, children murdered. That what they get. Free a savage, and he will come back to enslave you. Mark my words Europe is in the process of leading that now.
This video moved me to tears. I am always amazed at the amount of emotion Carl Sagan's words can stir in you. It is a damn shame that we lost this man so early, though we will always remember.
When I was young teenager and barely aware of youtube this was one of my first videos I came across with; I would end saving it into a playlist and I would see this video whenever I would get sad or feel lost. I would end up forgetting about the video and oddly enough came across it again but at time where I once again feel lost, boy Carl Sagan has a way to bring some hope back into me.
This has been out for years, and it's still incredibly beautiful. And since its 2017, these videos are incredibly necessary with current events. Thank you Reid.
Both sad, in that it won't be us to reach the stars, but also hope, in that someday the children of our children's children will. Hope that our species will someday grow into all that it can be.
"What a piece of work is man, How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty, In form and moving how express and admirable, In action how like an Angel, In apprehension how like a god, The beauty of the world, The paragon of animals" - Hamlet Mankind is far from perfect.... But in time....We may become something truly amazing....
The internet age is slowly opening the eyes of the world. Now more than ever we can communicate with people of vastly different cultures and ideology and guess what... At our core we are all the same. Good people who just want to do what is right. Looking across reddit and youtube, for example, at the Ukraine crisis, neither side wants to go to war. The problem is the greedy politicians we choose to lead. We need a new system of government. But I'm not smart enough to come up with one.
I keep coming back to this arrangement. It's great - perhaps could benefit from a remaster but otherwise it's nearly perfect Thank you for putting it together, Reid. It's clear you love Carl's voice and ideas and handled them with love and care. I will continue to share it.
Never fails to make me tear up. Everything about this video is so relevant right now. People don't realize how big of a deal global warming is right now and the soon to be most powerful free man on Earth thinks global warming is a conspiracy created by China. It makes me really, really sad. We are so fragile, and precious, everything on Earth is. This is our only oasis in a never ending sea of universe. We need unity, we need awareness, we need action.
About the seventh time I'm watching the sagan series all the way through now, and I never tire of it. He's such an inspiration. His voice and words erase any worries, if only for a brief moment, and strengthen my belief in the human race, for a while at the very least. Such a grand man. If only this planet had more like him...
Carl Sagan's words are a voice for our humanity. I only hope that what he said is true. In our time the religious issues are destroying many things of our world.
Those of us who are mostly moral and curious and passionate and concerned need to raise our voices up and start rattling the cage more. We cannot fear fighting for what is right--the survival of us...and the basic goodness in most people. And a rational, scientifically informed viewpoint that is systematic, yet also dynamic and not rigid and open to change. And a future where technology really does create abundant resources so that suffering isn't as bad.
I wouldn't class none of the suffering today as religious. It's driven by political evil, greed and the pressure of the media. Funny enough, media loves to damage religion. We, too, are rational, unlike certain people who think that there is 67 genders.
Hey Reid, this series was mentioned on Star Talk as being Jason Silva's (host of Brain Games TV show on National Geographic) source of admiration for Carl Sagan. Just thought you would like to know that :) P.s. This is one of my favourite series on RUclips.
I cannot emphasize enough how incredibly well done this series is. It gives hope to those who are confined in the everyday ignorance permeated throughout society. It puts life in perspective, and makes your realize that while we still have a lot of work to do, we've come a long way.
Thank you who ever posted this videos, you have done a great favor thanks and not only to me , but to the thousands or even millions of people who are seeing this right now , you have brought hope again to me , you have brought hapiness , and for that my friend is more valuable than anything you could ever imagined, so thank you a lot and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Bought and started reading Pale Blue Dot. I look to Sagan for inspiration, I'm currently a student working towards a career in Aerospace Engineering. I wonder what thoghts he would have on NASA's new SLS Program and planned maned trip to Mars.
I think this video changed something in me after I watched it back in my sophomore year of highschool. A little seed was planted, and just now it is beginning to bear fruit. Thank you Mr. Gower.
Beautiful...just beautiful...Thank you sincerely for following your bliss, for giving Carl Sagan's beautiful soul to the world again...He's very much here today still inspiring us to open our hearts, to humbly seek the truth, to appreciate the often overwhelming wonder of life on Earth and beyond, of the Universe within and without... Namaste

over the past few months i have been going through a bit of a tough time, struggling with doing simple day to day tasks and have been kind of depressed. watching this series has been inspiring to me, the words of Carl Sagan have always had a big impact on my mood, and this has helped me get into a mindset where i feel i can overcome the challenges i have been facing and am extremely thankful to have experience this short series. he was truly a remarkable man, both scientist and poet.
Sagan, you've influenced me more than I thought possible. I've listened to your voice over and over, attempting to understand the world for myself. Now I chosen to choose a new major for college and look at the world from a different perspective. Thank you.
I watch this series over and over again to be inspired. The total beauty of our Universe has yet to reveal itself, but the beauty that we can see, is absolutely breath taking.
Stevo - when I think of all the good people who were imprisoned and killed down through history because they thought like you makes me sick.... I've lost count of how many times in my life that I've heard the phrase "God didn't raise any idiots" and here comes another one.... How much progress have we lost because of this type of thinking? We could be a lot farther ahead.
Ahh...now I'm all teared up. Carl, thank you moving words, of what we have been most certainly will come to be. Here's looking forward to continuing on that great journey, to always remembering where it began. Thank you.
Such a great mind able to create such a beatiful message. This video makes my mind and my selfworth go totally free and just fly. There is no other idiology, religion, filosofy that makes me think differently. The is real! And damn man!! It feel soo good to be free like this.
Carl Sagan, you have been such an inspiration to my curiosity of the universe. I remember watching Cosmos when I was a child. Recently within the past year, I stumbled upon Cosmos once again while I was searching for Universe-Related documentaries on Netflix. To make a long story short, I ended up watching the entire series non-stop only to find that, compared to the research back then, and the research now, you were spot on. May you find all of the answers while you sleep. Rest in Peace.
Carl Sagan 's words are some of the most powerful of our time. I can't watch this enough. It reminds me I have a lot to do and see before my time is up!
I love you and miss you Carl. YOU are the reason I developed a curiosity about our universe. You are the reason I wasn't ever able to accept 'because' as an explanation. You are the reason I'm a scientist today. Thank you. You live on in our hearts and minds..
This. I can't understand how so many people can watch something like JB, when there are so many beautiful videos like this one, videos about wonders of nature and universe that make you feel and wonder and think ... Or perhaps they are afraid of thinking, afraid of feeling insignificant compared to vastness of it all. I wish more people would think of science and knowledge as something beautiful, something worth learning and practicing.
I need this video to find the energy to read physics when I'm exhausted after studying, and having a full time job. Thanks Carl Sagan! I would never manage without your soothing, yet powerful, and inspirational voice!
Every time I listen to this it awakes this strong, almost indescribable, longing for space. The feeling that I need to leave this planet and venture into space simply because I am not there yet.
Carl Sagan has the voice of a father attempting to comfort a distraught child.
+OneSmallStep At this point on our blue dot, we are distraught children. But I see a paradigm shift coming, and Sagan certainly had his place in the birth pangs of it.
pbshelleygirl keep dreaming there's no paradigm shift on the horizon
A father correcting an ignorant child.
Yeah... Yes he is
You still here in 2020?
Sagan had a way of communicating in such a poetic, beautiful way.
He was arguably the last of the modern warrior-poets, and he is sorely missed.
@@finickybits8055most definitely
Today would have been Carl Sagan's 79th birthday. Gone but not forgotten. We miss you Carl.

He also has the ability to point out our numerous flaws as well.

Nobody describes the human journey quite as poetically inspiring as Carl Sagan.

Does anyone else rewatches this video when things in the world seem to be going downhill?
Yep. Carl is sorely missed.
Is the world really going down? I think its objectively going up, its going so steep up we cant handle it
Yes.
