Carl Sagan had a way with words. He had a way of making the complex simple. As a young teenager growing up with an interest in science this was an excellent way to begin.
This is one of those must see programs. The music by Vangelis was also fantastic.
This ignited (excuse the pun) my interest in science and Vangelis' music which is as keen now as when I first saw and heard it.
Excellent!
