I hope my time is a long way away yet, but when my time comes I want to have a pretty one like Carl's. Maybe in a park where cats and dogs are free to roam around.

How does it feel to have stars for parents?

Big ThinkBook of the Week: The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan
Rather than writing a traditional comment / review, I’d prefer to let Sagan’s own words speak for themselves. One particular passage stands out—not only for its brilliance but for how eerily prophetic it now seems. (Image )
Sagan published this book in 1995.

Recuerdo un artículo de #CarlSagan en el que se oponía a desarrollar tecnologías de desvío de #asteroides. Razonaba que era más probable que se usaran para desviar un asteroide para que cayera encima de un país enemigo que la probabilidad misma de impacto natural.
If you are ever wanting something good to watch, The Royal Institute’s youtube page has a large array of information, right down to Carl Sagan lectures from 1977. Well worth checking out.

Re-reading Carl Sagan’s The Demon-Haunted World—a masterful defence of science, scepticism, and democracy.
More relevant than ever in an age of misinformation.
If more people embraced his message, we’d have less paranoia, less blind faith, and a world driven by reason, curiosity, and open inquiry.

The Lasting Power of The Demon-Haunted World
The Climate HistorianHappy 35th Anniversary to the image that forever shifted our perspective. And thank you, #CarlSagan. The #PaleBlueDot reminds us of our shared fragility and unity on this tiny speck suspended in a sunbeam. I’ll never tire of sharing this vision of humility and hope, until we truly grasp its meaning.

Decades before climate change dominated headlines, Carl Sagan warned us—drawing lessons from Venus’ runaway greenhouse effect to highlight the dangers of unchecked carbon dioxide emissions.
Yet, nearly 45 years later his words remain a call to action:
"The solution requires a perspective that embraces the planet and the future—because we are all in this greenhouse together."
