Aphex Twin’s Cliffs + Space + coffee = happy.
Ted Turner asks Carl Sagan if he is a socialist.
This is one of the many reasons that I love Carl Sagan
Do yourself a favour and watch this whole interview. Carl strides across all topics of humanity with intelligence and grace.
Better yet, watch it with Benn Jordan’s A Pale Blue Dot Tribute playing softly in the background.
And then, when you’re done, watch Cosmos (that’s Hulu, but it’s on Google Video, etc.)
Celebrate Carl.
View Larger DEEP SPACE SATURNINE This silhouette of Saturn was taken by the Cassini spacecraft on Feb. 13, 2010. Although the sun is eclipsed by Saturn in this dramatic image, some sunlight scatters through the uppermost part of the atmosphere to reach Cassini’s cameras. This view looks toward the northern, sunlit side of the rings from just above the ringplane. (Photo: NASA / JPL)
