Excerpts from Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in space. More specifically, from the chapter titled A universe Not Made For Us. I edited together the audio from the audio-book, and added the video from Stephen Hawking’s Into the Universe and Brian Cox’s Wonders of the Solar System. The music is Jack’s Theme from the Lost soundtrack.
I am overjoyed by the reaction to this video. To all those who have made such kind comments: thank you! It is a testament to Carl’s seemingly endless brilliance that he is still able to touch so many people over a decade since his death.

I do realize the subtitles are wildly inaccurate and somewhat offensive to some and for that I apologize. YouTube’s auto-transcribe function is still a work-in-progress, but I’ll see what I can do about adding my own subtitles.
If you enjoyed this video, read the magnificent book from which it originated: http://www.amazon.com/Pale-Blue-Dot-Vision-Future/dp/0345376595/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1278371196&sr=8-1
