Carl Edward Sagan (English pronunciation: /ˈseɪɡən/) (November 9, 1934 – December 20, 1996) was an American astronomer, astrophysicist, author, cosmologist, and highly successful popularizer of astronomy, astrophysics and other natural sciences. During his lifetime, he published more than 600 scientific papers and popular articles and was author, co-author, or editor of more than 20 books. In his works, he advocated skeptical inquiry and the scientific method. He pioneered exobiology and promoted the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI). Sagan became world-famous for his popular science books and for the award-winning 1980 television series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, which he narrated and co-wrote. A book to accompany the program was also published. Sagan also wrote the novel Contact, the basis for the 1997 film of the same name. From Wikipedia under the

Could the actual binary Arecibo message that was beamed into space in 1974 by Carl Sagan be decoded as a picture? If not, how would the entity know to duplicate their message as a picture instead of just a binary code? Asked by Jared - Thu Oct 29 13:17:45 2009 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. It's still out there. It will take approximately 25,000 years for it to arrive at the destination that they were aiming for. If "they" are going to hear it, then they'd better have their ears (or, whatever they use) to their radios, because the entire broadcast was less than three minutes long. Assuming that "they" actually do receive the entire message, and assuming that they record it, then they'll have the rest of eternity to figure out what it means. That might not be enough time. Maybe they will figure out that it's a string of 1679 bits. Maybe one of them will notice that 1679 has exactly two prime factors. Maybe they, like us, are accustomed to recording their ideas on two-dimensional pieces of paper, and maybe they will try… [cont.] Answered by pzifisssh - Thu Oct 29 13:25:55 2009 What episode from Carl Sagan's Cosmos is this Quote from? Q. "The Beauty of a living thing is not the atoms, that go into it. But the way those atoms are put together". It's in the song "We're all Connected" by Symphony of Science.

I believe this quote came either from the episode "Lives of the Stars" or "One Voice in the Cosmic Fugue". I *think* it's from the first... Answered by NoPlate - Mon Feb 8 22:01:28 2010 Did Carl Sagan make documentaries other than Cosmos?
Q. My husband & I love the Cosmos series & I was wondering if he made any other similar programs? We also love James Burke's Connections series & have been looking for his "The Day the Universe Changed" on DVD. Any info on both items would be appreciated! Asked by malteseheart - Thu Jul 3 12:22:59 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. I imagine you might know that he wrote many books. And of course there's the wonderful movie starring Jodie Foster ("Contact") which was based on one of his works. I'm curious now if there is more on film available. Will get back to you. Seems to be much by him (don't know if they're independant of "Cosmos" or not but some appear to be. Also tons on video about him. Happy hunting!
