CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
Flyerplesys Perfectly adorable
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
arnoldhali Cosmos released in 1980 and it is stlll relevant today. I watched this after watching the remake by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Cosmos: A Space Odyssey. This is the giant, like Isaac Newton on whose shoulder future Science Documentary TV Series can stand. Each and every episode is so enlightening. I watched it in 2018 and I am amazed by the things I learnedThe 21st century generation will be missing out if they skip this one. This was the time of transition and Carl Sagan set it by popularizing science and reaching it to the public. The scientific jargon is minimal and can be understood by the layman. Now i want to read the book.
esteban_dm2 No words can explain what feelings this show has arose in me. Carl Sagan leads brilliantly every chapter, being his passion for the subject in question evident and contagious. We explored, by his hand, our past and see it connected with the cosmos around us. We learned about its origin and of ourselves as human beings. We stay with some important lessons to think about once the show is over, which includes the care for our only home (the earth), the conception of human beings as one race (beyond our cultural differences), the need to learn surviving our technological adolescence, etc.And all of the above, with the ambiance of the perfect music for the occasion (goosebumps).You just watch it. Everybody must do it. This show is a life changing experience.
Lee Eisenberg Carl Sagan's miniseries about everything that is, ever was, and ever will be is a lot to digest, but you also realize how connected everything is. Whether focusing on the outer reaches of space or the tiniest atom on earth, "Cosmos" lays out our place in the universe. At the same time, Sagan reminds us that our use of technology can either improve our living standard or wipe out all life as we know it. Judging by the present, it's too bad that Sagan isn't around any more. He would be doing more than anyone to counter all the anti-intellectualism promoted by the Tea Party types.A lot of "Cosmos" IS a little hard to follow due to all the scientific lingo, but it's still something that everyone should see to understand our place in the universe, as well as understand what we need to do to preserve our planet.
kingdavidek There has been no shortage of praise towards Carl Sagan's Cosmos and rightly so. Every single episode in this wonderful series takes the watcher on a new adventure, teeming with learning. Sagan manages to make the viewer emulate his awe and wonder at the universe, where every discovery is a treasure trove. Cosmos is entertaining and interesting, containing anecdotes and dramatizations that most people will not have heard of but that are interesting and important. Not refining his viewers to space, and rightly so, Sagan covers many topics in an interesting and understandable way, from the Doppler effect to relativity to evolution and the workings and structure of DNA, the viewer will come out of this a much more knowledgeable person.
