Cosmos is one of my favorite things. I have the entire series on DVD. I just plowed through it a few weeks ago before I even knew they were airing a new version. I like Tyson, but I don't think he'll be able to bring the pathos and eloquence that Carl Sagan did. That series was every bit as poetic as it was scientific.
I'll watch it, but doing so will probably just make me miss Sagan that much more. The world needs more people like him. [Reply]

Completely agree. I listen to NDG's podcast, and I like him, but no one compares to Sagan's eloquence. It's cheesy as hell, but I find it very mysterious and soothing at the same time. [Reply]

I remember Neal from the John Stewart show. My son wants to study under him. I'm really grateful to him in bringing physics and astrophysics into our life's. [Reply]
