This is literally like finding the gold at the end of the rainbow
I watched this series ages ago when the series was recently made, and I never revisited this
I started today and my goodness, Carl Sagan was just the master, the way he presented things were second to none.
I'm watching episode 1, and maybe there's not so much I don't know..... but the facts and the way they are presented
Like biggest volcano on Mars, mount Olympus, the width of Arizona and three times taller than Mount Everest
And how Aristotanes 2200 years ago calculated the circumference of the Earth to be 40.000Km, the only tools: sticks, a plate, eyes, feet and brains, a correct answer within a margin of a few percent
Or how about this.... if the lifespan of the universe is compressed to one year, everything we know, everyone we ever heard of, everything that is written and recorded in any way.... occurs during the last 10 seconds of the year .....
Guys, you have to watch this, even if it's just to listen to the monumental music and Carl Sagan talking !
