Today is the birthday of the great science popularizer Carl Sagan



    On November 9, 1934, the American astronomer, astrophysicist and prominent science popularizer Carl Sagan was born.

    He inspired more than one generation of boys and girls to engage in science. The famous astrophysicist and popularizer of science, Neil Degrass Tyson, for example, told in his interview how, as a boy, he received an invitation from Carl Sagan to visit his laboratory at Cornell University, which influenced his choice of profession. Under the cut a lot of videos.

    I could write an article about the activities of Karl Sagan, but, fortunately, they did it for me, so I recommend reading the article on Wikipedia . I, in turn, would like to offer you videos translated and voiced by our studio.

    Carl Sagan Series (9 series)




















    Here are just a few that you can see about Karl Sagan.

    There is also a wonderful series “Space: personal journey” in voice acting from Alice Lafox.

    As a continuation of the series, a remake of "Space: Space and Time" was filmed , where the lead is already Neil Degrass Tyson.

    I can’t ignore the books of Carl Sagan, you simply have to read them, I’ll highlight only the main ones:

    “Dragons of Eden: Discussions on the evolution of the human brain”
    “Blue Spot: A Look at the Cosmic Future of Humanity”
    “A world full of demons. Science is like a candle in darkness ”
    “ Science in Search of God ”

    This is the minimum list of books authored by Carl Sagan, which must be read by anyone who is interested in science, philosophy, and the history of science.

    On my own behalf, on behalf of our studio, I can only say: “Thank you, Carl, for the inspiration!”
