It's cute that Mr. Sagan is giving this talk to young children. It shows he's willing to share his knowledge with all generations.

Imagine this lecture now. We've learned so much about the history and geology of Mars since 1977!

I find Carl Sagan to be one of the finest examples of what human beings can be. So wise and so good at speaking and sharing knowledge in a way that all can enjoy and understand. I wish he could have lived forever.

I wish so much that Carl Sagan had lived to see how much more we know about Mars-and how much there still is to learn! Can you imagine how thrilled he would have been with Ingenuity and Perseverance, especially the prospect of bringing Mars samples back to Earth!

It's so amazing we look back to 1977 and he looks back to c19th. I half expected to see clips from back in the 19th century for a minute. Isn't technology amazing. This was before I was born but I am still enjoying carl

One of my most regretted moments in my life is when, as a kid in the mid-80s, I was browsing through TV channels and wound up watching this strange tall man with an odd way of speaking. I remember thinking it must be some kind of new age hippie nonsense (not that I was old enough to know what that even meant), and changed the channel. I recognized it about a decade ago: it was a rerun of Cosmos, and the man was Carl Sagan. What a sad thing for me to miss out on. Even the original Cosmos should be mandatory viewing in school, but how much better off would we all be if we all had a Cosmos growing up...

If we all had to do or like the same thing would be rather boring. You didn't like as a kid. So you liked other things. That was your individual identity. At some point you discovered you liked it. Now can capture the awe and wonder. It would be no different then now learning to play an instrument today. Yea I remember watching Cosmos on WTTW. I watching these lectures to see if I remember watching them then. And if you did not know. He wrote the Book Contact which the movie Contact was based.

Si Carl Sagan viviera, seguro se sorprenderia de cuanto hemos aprendido del planeta rojo. Sigue siendo un mundo exotico y misterioso.

BTW, a recent hypothesis is that those "canals" were actually the blood vessels on the viewer's own retina being reflected by the telescope.

22:30 Carl Sagan, father of astronomy and science, in 1977 saying "it is not impossible nor ridiculous that there could have been a civilization on Mars". Now in 2024, Neil DeGrasse Tyson et cetera, laughing, giggling and making fun of anyone who suggests signs of a past civilization on Mars. Food for thought. Have we become smarter as a species, or dumber?

I think these things run in cycles, surely. Right now we're in a "Low Valley of Intelligence" cycle. So yes - I don't think we are as smart now as we were then. But it's possible for this to change.
