This desperately needs to be remastered. The audio is horrible and the video could use cleaning up also.

Thanks To All Who were responsible this informative post ❤ John Barnett aka A Voice In The Mall ❤❤❤revisted July 21 2024

9 minutes of crap at the start but obviously apes want to let their Tribe know how important they are I'm 49 and in the past I as very religious but now I realise that I'm just an ape that's all I am an ape with clothes on - it's a scary realisation but that's it

He is wrong. Genomes are not based on seasonal environments and speciation is not "efficiency" driven.

This is so dumb. It is archaic . It is a bunch of men sitting like parrots on a single wire repeating the same sqwak.

He was a real storyteller.

Why did so many people leave before finishing the conference?, offended them their beliefs. People stupid.

...🦍🤔...all men all women one man one woman.....love me some science

Request ai clean up audio

It's funny to hear, 30 years after this lecture the concern for the holes that used to be in the ozone. Back then it was absolutely a serious issue, lol, now in 2024 the holes have nearly entirely disappeared. I bet climate change and pronouns will go the same route. In 20/30 years climate change and gender dysphoria will be an embarrassing memory that everyone will avoid talking about

is it played in high speed?

Whoever kept making that noise ruined this talk. Couldn't finish it, too distracting.

1:20:10 ... and every misanthropic boomer who knew and understood all this when Sagan gave this lecture... My misanthropy is conditionally withheld from the youngest adults in the hope that they just might live to be less disappointed by their peers than I am with mine. Bloody gammons.

Sagan magic

A knowledgeable lecturer without Neils' arrogance.

🎧❤️🚴1830h050524🔥Carl Sagan is so patient with that damn faulty microphone cable or xlr plug, while priest who explains biblical scriptures in highschool are very irritant because of a student who isn't looking at them while lecturing.

Such a hottie!!!

Difficult to find people like him. Science for human wisdom, not humans for science.

How do time crystals interact?

🤭💘🤭 Thank You Jesus. 🙏 I love you. 👄 = Universe is Breathing . ( In a nutshell ) 🙄 According to the placements of all the other metallic magnetic forces. ( Obviously. 🙄 )

Carl Sagan explains the many observations made with Discovery 1 and Discovery 2. The picture of the pale blue dot was taken by Discovery 1 . Today NASA managed to recuperate signals from Discovery 1 - 46 years after its launch - as it leaves the solar system and ventures further- far overreaching its goals. The James Webb telescope gives us startling pictures of galaxies that we could only imagine when Carl Sagan made this speech. But his message then is further proven correct by scientific evidence. We miss Carl Sagan today to give us a glimpse of this

嗨我爱黑洞

He was living in my hostel during his iit tenure, once we happen to work on something as an assignment in engg physics course I guess so I went to his room, was surprised to see he keeps footwear outside the room and asked me to do the same. Very neat and clean this guy likes to live (those who lived in iitd hostels would know what I am talking about😅) Great guy, loves to argue logically, he does not utter a single word which somehow won't connect with what's going on in the conversation. Good to see him following his passion, i have seen few AIR 1s before, but this one is different

Brilliant man, excellent presenter and speaker , great sense of humor and decent human being. Cosmos what is the best book an even better TV series. It was on a level anybody could understand.

Alot to think about, eh?

Totally agree. Nuff said

They’re doing to Avi Loeb now what they used to do to Galileo hundreds of years ago.

It's so rare to find someone like him. What a legend.

damn, bob laughlin is so eloquent!

Before i say this i love hitchens and harris. This guy is my new HERO

An interesting, learned-yet-entertaining talk by the late Dr. Sagan, made too often unintelligible thanks to poor sound.

I've never seen Dr. Who. Will it be on the exam?

Carl was a deep state liar. Lighthouses and shorelines can be seen from nearly 100 miles away and the horizon never recedes with rise in altitude. The earth is most certainly flat , Sagan is a liar and NASA is a hoax.

The sudden fade to black at the end when he talks about borders eroding and nations working together... A bit too symbolic in this day and age...

In a world where lies are the currency; telling the truth is a revolutionary act. The western messaging, western media, it’s all NOT ONLY UNTRUE, it’s like the complete inversion of the truth-I call it “anti truth.” These anti truths are ubiquitous and the only way you can make sense of what we are seeing predominant in every western country is to hypothesize that those with power are PURPOSEFULLY toppling our societies. Thereafter you may host all sorts of plausible ideas as to motives

1st comment bitches!

Glad to see he knew about Aristarchus of Samos! ❤️👏

Watch and listen to Carl segan at night to relax n go to sleep 😴. Love him. Super interesting and intelligent.

2:03:48 darn those 2-hour VHS tapes recording on high quality!

Hoping AI can adjust the audio on this one day to clarity that will help it reach a wider audience.

As sunlight warms the surface of the Earth, heat radiates away from our planet as infrared radiation which passes freely past the atmospheric gases of nitrogen and oxygen. Indeed, if it weren’t for greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide that do interact with and impede the escape of Earth’s radiant heat, the planet would be frozen solid. Thankfully, even though greenhouse gases comprise only 4/10ths of one percent of the atmosphere, they are powerful enough to maintain this ‘blanketing effect’ by constantly absorbing and releasing the infrared photons over and over, again and again. In doing so, they vibrate wildly, thus causing them to vigorously collide with other atmospheric molecules. This imparts the kinetic energy of motion throughout the atmosphere and registers as temperature. For more, search: ‘Enhanced Greenhouse Effect’; then ‘Amplified Greenhouse Effect’. For the big picture, search: Marcott reconstruction chart

The most influential person in my life. Thanks Carl - we sure could use more people with your drive, your thirst for discovery and your unwavering commitment to the scientific method.

He was wrong about somethings

he's my hero !!!!

01:00:00

How we have evolved! ( we notice the pre-pandemic coughing of the audience )

The sudden ending is our full teaching moment. And we have to ponder, if he was alive today - so much is in this lecture, imagine what he would be saying today. Maybe our fate is to end quickly....after a civilization festooned with billions of brilliant cosmological discoveries.

Some are meant to be read and not to be suddenly put under a spotlight. Ai, at every driveway, is already too far into the writer or theorist who retreats to isolation to work or study. That is the tripping point here. The phone is a stage in hand and the performer wasn't prepared for the part. A dark place behind the stage is the right place to point to the door or, some will bristle and shoot poison arrow hairs at what they sense is an odd intruder.

If you look up the the term “long winded” in a dictionary, it features a photo of Dr Sagan. Get to the point!!!

1:43:17 person asks if Sagan believes in god. 😂 Faith is belief in the absence of evidence. You shouldn’t believe anyone who says god told them something. Scientific results are repeatable. Religious experiments are not repeatable.
