What I admire most in Dr. Sagan's lectures is that he freely admits if we are not sure about a certain explanation of a feature on Mars. He stays very open-minded and that's exactly what a scientist dhould do. Don't assume - find out!
Its why google is so shit now with it becoming full of main stream journalist with emotional "confirmation" of "facts". It would be a wonderful world of science if everyone followed this logic based thinking instead of believing what seems easier.
"Don't assume - find out!" And yet Carl believed the creation of the universe happened without God. To Carl, it just began. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iDjwF_-ydcM.html We have NO science for creation happening naturally. NONE. Carl did not care about finding out. He orgasmed being the dumbass he loved to be.
@@logandarklighter There was a live audience but I always watched them on TV. I don't think they went out live but they were broadcast just after Christmas during the school Christmas holiday.
Yeah, maybe those kids will be inspired to give word farts too, like... Carl Sagan "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." Yet Carl was delusional thinking creation could happen without God. Carl Sagan, "The dangers of not thinking clearly are much greater now than ever before. It's not that there's something new in our way of thinking - it's that credulous and confused thinking can be much more lethal in ways it was never before." Yet Carl never thought clearly about creation and what other miracles followed. Miracles don't happen naturally but they did to Carl who had NO proof they could happen naturally. Carl Sagan, "We hunger to understand, so we invent myths about how we imagine the world is constructed - and they're, of course, based upon what we know, which is ourselves and other animals. So we make up stories about how the world was hatched from a cosmic egg or created after the mating of cosmic deities or by some fiat of a powerful being." Yet Carl had myths miracles could happen naturally with NO proof they could. Those kids had a lying dumbass who cared nothing about truth.
And here we are now nearly half a century later ! And the Planet Mars has now been totally Terraformed into the paradise holiday destination we all know and love today .
Space telescope Institute in Baltimore did thse kinds of lessons in early Hubble days. I know because I was there. We have sensors on the moon that detect hits, or at least we did. Not sure if they still function. I know new telescopes can see spectra of exoplanets to see atmosphere features but I wonder if one day we could just scan for crater count and know if there was weather there? I know it wouldn't tell us the kind of weather, but its a neat concept.
i think noone watching this great lectures today except e.... because people dont have time instead foolish things.. im now 24 years old.... YOUTH of today totally distracted
The theory of climate change goes back to at least the early 19thC and Joseph Fourrier (when discussing our current climate change). The concept that climates change over time is older than that.
Well, that would probably have been Arrhenius, who postulated that *we* were causing the planet to warm is the very late 19th C. None of this is new, but it does take time to gather and collate data, especially if you're asking weather stations across the world to send you their readings and then having to chart them. The UK's MetOffice has weather data from Oxford going back to 1853, viewable here: www.metoffice.gov.uk/pub/data/weather/uk/climate/stationdata/oxforddata.txt The England and Wales Precipitation series goes back to 1766: www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadukp/data/monthly/HadEWP_monthly_qc.txt The Central England Temperature series is a standardised instrument record dating back to 1659, and you can view it here: www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/cetml1659on.dat They're nicely laid out on these pages, but the CET dataset took Prof. Gordon Manley over 30 years to compile; a task he continued even after his retirement from the Met Office and that was still incomplete at the time of his death. Others have assumed the role since 1980 - and Prof. Manley got so close to his own time, his compilation reached 1973, before he died in 1980. It's a truly great work!
Alex G It is a big problem! Learn to understand facts and statistic! You can find the raw data online! And, as I have written above, it was autocorrection. Learn to read idiot!
